I bet you were not furloughed during the worst recession in recent history and your health insurance doesn't reduce your take home pay by 30%. I bet you didn't spend six years, trying to stay sane in overcrowded crashpads while stressing over that $600 interest payment.
Many of us did. I'm not whining, I know I can handle anything life will throw at me. I'm smarter, more skeptical, and less receptive to bull****. Right is right, wrong is wrong, and i'm getting ready to cash in on my dues.
As a pampered product of the early 00's, you shouldn't accuse a senior RJ FO of being a whiner. Chances are that he has been beat down, hardened and learned how to deal with guys like you. You will soon fly with them.
Welcome to a generation who has indeed experienced life.
