WHO IS GENERATION Y

- People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation..

- People born between 1946 and 1964 are called The Baby Boomers.

- People born between 1965 and 1979 are called Generation X.

- And people born between 1980 and 2010 are called Generation Y.

Why do we call the last group Generation Y?

Y should I get a job?
Y should I leave home and find my own place?
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours?
Y should I clean my room?
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes?
Y should I buy any food?

But a cartoonist explained it very eloquently below...

I think that you think that means what it does not mean.

No I know what this is, I think I should have been more clear.

See I was born in 1980 and would like to be not considered GenY so I was trying to say: I would like to vote that Generation Y cover from 1981-2010 (instead of 1980-2010) so I would not be included in the often accurate depiction of the OP definitions! Sorry for the confusion!

even though I fall in this Y generation, I truly know that i am nothing like what the OP stated ( i don't take offense from the OP, I understand it is a joke)

I have a job, have my own place, pay my own bills ( have since i was 15), was never on my parents car insurance.

All of these things have made me a much stronger person, I do feel bad for those other kids that will fall flat on their face when everything is taken away from them. They will have a hard time making ends meet.

No offense taken from anywhere on here, I was trying to inject a small amount of my sarcastic humor unsuccessfully!

My father gave me a belt and therefore I was forced to not be part of GenY or I would get the belt in a different way! Wish they would seperate the good from the bad.
