Monday Millennials for 6/29/2009 – Time
There just isn’t enough time in the day to do all the stuff millennials want to do, let alone the stuff we need to do. Even with great time management, the best get behind and sacrifices have to be made. Not the goat-on-an-altar-type but the “Do I stay an extra hour at work to finish this project and impress my boss or head out at my regular time and cook dinner for my girlfriend?” type sacrifices.
In today’s economy, with all the d*ckhead managers out there who have *no idea* what a work-life balance is, it might be a wiser choice to say, “How does McDonalds sound, honey?”
But in my opinion, it’s the wrong one. They say you only live once – and if that’s true, then why do you want to spend your limited time on this earth impressing a d*ckhead when you could be impressing your girlfriend instead? (Hopefully they’re not synonymous in your world.)
If you are still torn, here’s a blogger who actually gives two yanks about Millennials: Jason Seiden. You can find him on Twitter (@seiden) and in book form. Read up and enjoy!
Also, you might have noticed the rather gratuitous language… according to someone on StumbleUpon, Psychotic Resumes is “odd and a bit disturbing” – which is just what I was going for! If you censor yourself, you’re not being honest. I’m the first to admit that I’m odd and a bit disturbing, but at least I’m honest!
