I always worked hard and did extra, not from loyalty to the company (and I sure didn’t expect loyalty from the company!), but as a matter of self-respect.

I do too, but mostly because I'm highly competitive -- going above and beyond is part of my nature. And, let's be honest, those dreaded Boomers are the ones that appreciate our kind of thinking; the younger gens are, from my experience, the ones that don't get it and take advantage of each other and that's the problem.

Boomers are just a convenient thing for the time being. Wait until it's Gen Ys turn to get it (I'm Gen-X, the generation proudly ignored lol)
