The Next Generation Gap: Xers vs Ys: A Gon Xer looks around at the Gen-Xers in the office and looks back when she was the young upstart in a room full of Boomers.

Its an interesting look at Gen YMillennials (I thought the "Millennial" label was for those say born in ~1995-2008, but wikipedia has an interesting article on the topic including some vagueness on the start dates).

Now Iâo[dot accent]m getting a dose of my own smugness because a lot has changed in ten years. I am not always the slick up-and-comer in the room with a strikingly new perspective. Sometimes I am just the Gen-Xer bombarded with the extreme optimism and potential of the Millennials. (Another insult: These people used to be called Generation Y, but they donâo[dot accent]t like to be associated with Gen Xers, so they prefer the term âo[ogonek]Millennials.âo[caron])
