#1 Now a generation have been raised to believe have a right to equal pay but also a right to be treated specially. While it starts out being about women, it morphs into being about 'human beings.'

#2 People who think they're special will be treated especially badly by the coming economic "problems".

#3 I forget her name but there is this psychologist at San Diego State University that states the "self esteem and award without accomplishments" of trophies for losing every game in AYSO and not having awards ceremonies to avoid huring feelings and trying to stop keeping score at little league games, and all the other feel good don't bruise the ego blather has created a generation of monsters. Self entitled, no work ethic, no sense of accomplishment, self important and technologically isolated from true socialization.

Much of what she has written about predicts the behavior such as Newtown and Aurora. Everyone thinks they are "Special" and are a celebrity and will do literally anything to have their moment of fame.

#5 It's not a new phenomenon. Bloomburg (the media outfit) was lauded a few years back for having a 'lifestyle workplace', complete with restaurants, hair salons, media lounges and other mercantile outlets on premises. Apparently the concept of it being of a modern 'company town' was overlooked.

#7 The problem with all of these trendy neat places to work with the hair salons, gyms, massueses, gourmet dining, and video games is that stuff was designed to keep guys working around the clock...now they don't work at all.

How do you tell a guy to get to work when he can go to the climbing wall, skate board park or natorium any time he wants.

Google is trying to rein in this silliness they started.

As it is, that is what most of these arrogant little shits think they are owed for their unproductive presence at work.

And trust me, they will backstab and sabotage anyone that makes them work.
