I've never heard either of them associated with Gen Y. I've also never actually heard anyone say or even suggest that we care more about social networks than our jobs. I think it's fair to say that we're either overly optimistic or cynical are stereotypes, but the two remaining points you make about Gen Y job hopping and having a sense of entitlement aren't necessarily stereotypes. If you live in a city like Toronto, where new jobs open up every day, you can job hop. I think this can lead to a sense of entitlement among Gen Yers.

I'm not a car guy - I don't even know what a carbon fiber hood is. I'm a computer guy, I actually didn't get the ray bans, I spent all my money on a new laptop! Hopefully I will be able to squeeze in a few more posts. Thanks for stopping by my site! @Jennifer - what a coincidence, that’s my girlfriend’s name.

I find it to be refreshing and very informative. I wish there were more blogs like it. Anyway, I felt it was about time I posted, I’ve spent most of my time here just lurking and reading, but today for some reason I just felt compelled to say this.
