re: TEGNA Employees To Get Bonus

I agree with the part about people becoming entitled, especially younger ones. I'm only 28, but I feel like the age gap between my generation and the one 5-10 years younger is massive. "Kids" these days are the most entitled, selfish, and attention-seeking I think the world has ever seen.

My current job, which I've had for 5 years now, is the first I've ever had that gives out any kind of Christmas bonus and I'm extremely thankful for it. We get $50 turkeys at thanksgiving, a Honey Baked ham at Christmas, $800-$1500 cash depending on how the company did that year, and $2500 in our 401k. We also choose a charity by taking votes and then sell raffle tickets for prizes to raise money, and you can usually walk away with some pretty awesome stuff like a yeti cooler, flat screen tv, razorback gear, etc.

Anyway, even with ALL of that there are still younger, newer guys that complain about the $2500 going into the 401k instead of cash in hand (on top of what cash we already do get), that they'd rather have a raise instead of a turkey or ham, or that they didn't win a cool enough prize at the raffle or one at all. It blows my mind and pisses me off when a 19-25 year old kid with a high school education comes in, works for less than a year, and has the attitude like he/she is somehow owed MORE for their entry-level services that just about anybody could do.
