My dad forwarded me a link to that video a few weeks ago and I got a chuckle from it.
It was fun to have a laugh at youthful attitudes today. But, sadly, the work world - at least as I have experienced it - has changed for the worse from what it was before the younger generations' time.
Where I work the usual ethic is to do the minimum possible to get by. It used not to be that way, but over the past 20 years the business has been sold, spun off, merged half a dozen times. Each time a few people are laid off, the layers of bureaucracy increase, and management focuses more on short-term results over future viability. Many jobs are offshored or outsourced (the people currently performing them being laid off then rehired for the same work by a contractor, with fewer or no benefits and lower salary). Medical coverage requires higher employee contributions and provides a lower level of benefits each year. 401K matching has been slashed and is now paid annually instead of quarterly (so if you work 364 days then leave for whatever reason, you lose matching for the entire year). No one has received a raise in years. Annual bonuses (in lieu of performance based raises) have dwindled away to nothing - except for the top echelons of management, who receive multi-million-dollar "golden parachute" payoffs on the way out the door after every buy-out, no matter what havoc they've wreaked with the business during their tenure.
There was a time when drive and dedication were recognized and rewarded. People were invested in the success of our business and providing real value. We were loyal to the company and the company, in turn, was loyal to us. Now there are still a few who are motivated solely by personal satisfaction in doing a good job, but increasingly the rule of the day is resigned cynicism.
