I'll get out of the way and then you can show me how the fundamental boring stuff is done right. I've employed seven genex kids in the last three years and two are left. They just can't get the boring stuff right and it hurts my business regularly.

Your generation has been badly served by educations that don't stress the fundamentals. I had to wake one of the kids up to point him at the calculator accessory in his computer to add strings of figures correctly the third time.

Needless to say, they don't last long with my husband who had his own business for 35 years.

Here we go again with the logical fallacies. You know seven gen Xers who just happen to represent the whole population. Wow! And where were you educated sir?

How young are these kids. Surely you don't expect teens to be sticking with one job when they are trying to figure out what type of work they like?
