Generations in the workplace, ranked
SteveI have been to a few events lately, and thus have been subject to at least some 'Generations in the Workplace' content. Since many of you might still be confused/concerned/bored to death with discussions on Generations and work, I humbly submit to you this subjective, unscientific, and 100% accurate breakdown of how the generations stack up in the workplace.

Here goes...
5. Millennials
4. Traditionalists/Silent Generation
3. Whatever comes after the millennials (I know that technically these folks are not yet in the workplace but that doesn't stop people from talking about them like they are already our bosses)
2. Baby boomers
1. Gen X
You can comment if you like, but if you disagree with me, then clearly you must be a Millennial.

It seems the author of the article is generation X.
It seems the author of the chart is a Baby Boomer.
Boomers = Innovation? <crying laughing emoticon> <crying laughing emoticon> <crying laughing emoticon>
More crying laughing emoticons.
And I don't even use emoticons.

As anticipated, the Millennial has an issue with the rankings...
