 Thanks for recognizing this. We used to get the Gen Xers whining about us "not wanting to work" and, to be fair, some of the generation is like that, but many of us aren't like that. We just want to work in ways that don't contribute toward the destruction of civilization. We want to find ways to ensure our lives and the lives of our descendants are lived in meaningful and fulfilling ways. We're the ones who predominantly rejected the old, cold, corporate way of doing things.

I salute you for this note. 🫡 
 as a GenXer
this is more my experience of millennials.

maybe a little soft
but not lazy
and super well-intentioned
