The Famous Millennials

Millennials, I guess we’re all not strange to this word. But do you really know them or just familiar to their name? So let’s get to know with this generation a little bit. Millennials (also known as Generation Y) are the generation who born after the generation X. They born between the early 1980s to mid 1990s. Two of the biggest event they experience is the September 11 terrorist attacks and the Great Recession. With the Great Recession has had a major impact in their life.

When it comes to Gen Y you can’t get far from talking about tech. Growing up when the technology is significantly develop, Gen Y is not a stranger to today tech. That’s what make Gen Y is really different to the generations above them, they’re digital native. These days the generations before them complain a lot about the millennials getting too attach to technology. But I believe not all the millennials like that. Its all back to each person how do they react to the tech.

The “lazy” generation, maybe that’s what the generation above think of Gen Y. Yes their work attitude is quite different than the generation before, but actually they’re not that lazy. Gen Y tend to use the technology, espsecialy internet as maximum as they could. And maybe that’s the reason why Gen Y looks lazy. Despite of their lazyness look, they tend to work more efficient and effective. Maybe because of their “lazyness” so they don’t want to waste to much energy on something.

I would like to say that Gen Y is the game changger, why? Because they have a very different way of thinking than the older generation. And of course they never afraid to speak for it. Also famous as the creative and energetic generation. Always full optimism and want to be hear. They’re freedom lovers, maybe that’s one of the reason many of them is not loyal to their company and like to job-hopping. And the last one, they love innovation.

Maybe the millennials is not the greatest generation of all time. They often get critisism from generations above them. But millennials sure is giving many impact to this world, by their own way.
