Here’s the problem I keep seeing with my generation... the millennials

It all started with the participation trophies that were given just for showing up

My brother shared with me a story about my first participation trophy I received under the pavilion in York Fields

He said I never looked so confused because our team was terrible and just received a trophy

Here’s how I’ve seen it translate to the workplace.. now people want to be rewarded just for showing up and doing their job

If you show up on time... great you’re expected to

If you do your job... great you’re expected to

If you’re loyal to your job... great you’re expected to

Want to be rewarded and get a raise, promotion etc.. go above and beyond
