We’re often chastised as an indecisive generation that doesn’t know what’s good for it. On the tube this morning, I was listening to Jason Calacanis argue that millennials are innately selfish – we’re looking for personal growth, things that we need/have to do. 18 months into a new job we decide that we have to go to Tibet. No, the company don’t have an office out there, but it’s not about them, it’s about us. Today’s graduates aren’t looking to find a job, batten down the hatches and ride it out, they want to knit together a patchwork quilt of ‘life experiences’, when the going gets tough, they don’t get going, they just go.
