Welcome, dear Elder Millennials! Prepare to embark on a perilous journey through the choppy waters of millennial stereotypes. As we navigate the vast expanse of eyebrow-raising assumptions, it's time for a collective eye-roll at the misconceptions that have stubbornly clung to us like a persistent pop culture residue. Sure, these stereotypes may be as absurd as the notion that a generation can be defined by its avocado consumption, but fear not – our laughter shall be the mighty weapon against these ill-founded beliefs.

Immerse yourself in a captivating collection featuring 19 tales where Elder Millennials fearlessly debunk the most cringe-worthy stereotypes hurled our way. From the seemingly universal belief that avocados are our greatest obsession to the audacious assumption that adulting is a skill beyond our grasp, these stories are bound to elicit laughter and induce a fair share of head-shaking disbelief. It's time to set the record straight, and what better guide than humor to dismantle the foundations of these baseless stereotypes?

Millennial Stereotypes I, for one, am tired of hearing about the things we've "killed". Tastes change all the time, this is not new.

Millennial Stereotypes I had to go on a business trip and work with an older lady who was just about ready to retire. I manage tradeshows and travel around North America to convention centers and hotels organizing events. She had an old school way of checking inventory by hand. I'm pretty good with excel and salesforce, so I had a faster way of doing it. I got the job

Millennial Stereotypes I'll start, avocado toast is the reason we won't be able to retire.

Millennial Stereotypes I kinda laugh when boomers call us snowflakes when they seem like the bigger bunch of wimps in history. Anytime they get a taste of their own medicine they act like it's a assault on their freedom.

Millennial Stereotypes as an american, its basically that we're inheriting a system that nobody trusts us to run. all the people who represent us are 2-3 times older than us, the older generations are refusing or unable to retire which is preventing us from actually entering the job market.

Millennial Stereotypes That people don't own a house because they're "lazy". I have taken the time to explain the loss of buying power, stagnant wages, automation, contract employees, lack of job security, cost of living in other areas, etc. play way more into it.

Millennial Stereotypes When people call teens and early 20s millennials. That was like 10-15 years ago. I've seen old people refer to generation x members down to junior high students as "millennials", it just means "person under 50 who I don't like", apparently.

Millennial Stereotypes I hate that millennials get pinned as being addicted to their phones. Like, always behind a screen and not interacting with the real world. I for one try really hard to have good phone etiquette and what l've noticed is, boomers can be really bad at this. Some of the older people in my office and family are the worst offenders when it comes to texting at the table or just checking out on social media.

Millennial Stereotypes In my office if you finish the arduous tasks you are given early, they just expect more work. They don't care about the quantity or quality just that you punch in for 8 hours a day. Now that l work from home, I have a much better balance because no one can see me fucking around when I finish my tasks early. Just because it takes me four hours to do what takes my boomer coworkers eight hours to do, doesn't mean I should have to do more than them. I currently have the highest stats on my team (I am also the only millennial) and when I finish my work am expected to pick up the slack for my coworkers who can only type 30 words a minute with a 75% accuracy rate. Yet, I'm the lazy and entitled one because I have more down time.

Millennial Stereotypes Like many, I am working from home. I'll get a call from my mom "hey you are not working now, go do something for me". Thanks, working from home is waaaay shitter than going to "real" work, atleast for me. I do fit the stereotype of hating talking on the phone :)

Millennial Stereotypes "You must go to college and get a degree. You don't want to be flipping burgers or changing the oil in some rich guy's car." does that, incurs a lot of debt "These irresponsible millennials and their elitist liberal educations! If they'd been smart, they'd go to community college and transfer/go to trade school. They won't just take a job, any job to pay the bills. They could flip burgers. Why should we pay for their mistakes?"

Millennial Stereotypes "Millenials" has just become a term for "young person with ideals I don't agree with."

Millennial Stereotypes I'm getting really tired of hearing about us lying around expecting handouts and not working. Especially when it's a situation where the person saying it is standing in a room with a lot of millennials, all of whom have jobs, which is every single time l've heard this said in real life. Like, who here is lying around doing nothing? Whose your example? Oh it's your neighbour's best friend's cousins son, he doesn't have a job and lies on the couch all day. Okay.

Millennial Stereotypes That we don't take our jobs seriously. I had to sit my peer (55+) down and tell him that the millennials he was bitching about were the same age as the "very qualified and mission focused" person he's been working with for the past decade. We're* upper management. *me and colleague in story specifically, not a generalization on millennials, to clarify

Millennial Stereotypes When we are looked down upon for needing to use YouTube, etc. for learning tasks (e.g. changing a tyre) that our parents were taught by our grandparents but the former never took the time to teach us.

Millennial Stereotypes We got blamed for spring break covid outbreaks. WE ARNT IN COLLEGE ANY MORE.
