They have no concept of moving up the ladder a rung at a time. "I'm
CEO or I'm not coming to work for you!" How does one get a work ethic
when they start without ethics? Parents aren't instilling that into
kids today, at least not from my perspective. Grandparents scold
their kids and grandkids about it all the time. 'Tis sad, indeed.
