I haven't heard that from an entire generation, sorry.
It seems the prevailing attitude is one that un or underemployed people can kiss their @$$ and quit whining? I know a girl that graduated Harvard Law and has never once been able to secure a job beyond waitressing. Most jobs she applies for she is well considered, along with 5,000 other applicants. I guess she is a whiner from an entitlement generation.
You didn't say it our right, but are implying it when you keep on complaining about not being guaranteed a job or successful career.
Maybe you missed the whole occupy "movement" but it wasn't a bunch of retired folks making a bunch of noise.
A lot of people think that just having an ivy league education is the golden ticket to a good job making a lot of money but it isn't. You have to have more on your resume than just a fancy piece of paper. I'm sure if she was willing to move anywhere in the country she would be able to find something.
