    It seems like this is the new work attitude among many, which is, 'I really don't want to work. I just want the pay and benefits.' As someone who supervised others for years, I would occasionally get one like this, but it now seems to be the prevailing attitude.

    I hate to agree with you on this. I really do. I'm hoping this is just a case of being spoiled/entitled. My other college interns are better than this as well as almost all of my military enlisted who are about the same age...if anything...I think I'll stick with my sure thing and hire NCOs getting out who are motivated!

    Getting older can be a real bitch when it comes to our physical health, even if you took care of yourself when younger.:(

    I have no idea how you guys way up North but up with all that cold and snow. I thought it was bad down here in the 30's. But that's not that often, now the allergies that's another story.

    How do I get that kind of job?
    That sounds like it's going to ruin all of your summer break. Hope if you stick with the docs plans you're back up full speed soon!
    Fuzzy crocs aren't gonna help in that kind of weather

    I have two systems I work with....1 is corporate for company stuff and 2 is client for actual client work and communications. I had her working on projects that could be done on the corporate computer system. Teleworking requires a lot of maturity and professionalism, which I shouldn't expect from a young person, but she basically tells a good lie imho.
