Gen Y, with its huge numbers and very different generational needs, style and values, appears to already be threatening to Gen X and Boomers.
At the big Distance Learning and Teaching conference in Madison this week, a Gen Xer came up and asked whether Gen Y would leapfrog her in getting promotions. And a Boomer said I was stereotyping Boomers as lagging in tech skills, but the underlying message was she was threatened by being outnumbered by Gen Yers in just a few years.
Well you pretty much did stereoptype the Boomers that worked for you for years on end, when you fired 6 of them within a year without reason - except of course, your wife. But let's not talk about that. Gen X & Y are so cool!
