    Did he bring his parents to the job interview?

    he's been offered a defense contractor job in the mid-West

    The best and brightest.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Was he a 1981 millenial or a 1996 millenial? Quite the range. I'm barely a millenial but considering my friend in high school got a typerwriter as a graduation gift and I didn't have a cell phone until senior year of college, I don't like being lumped in with people who can't remember the world without high speed internet (or internet at all, for that matter). Anyway.....at the minimum he should've given you two weeks out of respect. At least if you get a call as a reference you know what to say.

        That would be my guess. Makes him 26 years old.

          Yeah, he's a 1996 millennial.

          I don't really count people born in 1981 as millennials. Maybe there should be a different word for them, other than the obvious ones which I am too polite to use here.

          I was only joking

              I always found it quite funny that Billy Idol is actually a boomer.

                Interesting to listen to him look back on his career. Turns out, all those celebrities you knew from way back when, were always actual people struggling to do actual things as best as they could.

                  The lazy fucker still hasn't made it in and it's 1:15. I was going to send him home today, as I don't want to have to drive all the way in tomorrow with the traffic just to pick up his laptop and badge.

                  God, what I'd give for his new employer to phone up asking for a reference

                    This might make you feel better, although I can't vouch for the generational identity of the subject of this letter:
