I agree and I love this article - one of the men who reported to me is 27 and had this attitude. "I have to show up on time? Every day? I have to do this AGAIN this month? I don't like doing data entry. I have a degree, you know."
Plus he had called in sick because:
He left his iPhone at a friend's and had to get it
He woke up in some strange girl's bed and was "quite frankly, too drunk to come into work", and didn't know where his car was anyway (on a work night)
He missed his flight out of Las Vegas because he got "confused as to the day" - the flight was at 12 AM and he showed up the next day at the airport
And finally, what got him fired - got caught sleeping in one of our supply rooms. When asked why he thought that was a good idea, "I only sleep when I have downtime."
Meanwhile, he was constantly asking me when he would be promoted, why he wasn't making more money, why he wasn't given higher level stuff to do, etc. Really?
