This is where the rampant ageism in the industry has lead us; millennials who expect a prize for doing something totally obvious to anyone with experience, who was never considered for the job because they were “too old”
I understand your sentiment, but I think your wording is a bit mean spirited. I don't think this person "expects a prize", nor do I think this is a trait that can be applied to millenials as a whole. My sister who has hired literally a hundred people bucketed as "millenials" has had the exact opposite experience in dealing with them than you describe. She thinks they are some of the hardest working people she has ever worked with. But we digress.
