According to Time mag …
Gen Y workers won’t accept jobs where they can’t access Facebook.
Gen Y-ers want to be connected to their friends and families, not just their co-workers, throughout the day.
Although some companies ban social media at work, other companies have embraced it as long as employees use it professionally.
Use it “professionally”?
Say, what?

Gen Y workers will doom the traditional 9 to 5 workday.
Gen Y-ers value workplace flexibility over more money.
More than one-third (37%) of Gen Y workers would take a pay cut if it meant more flexibility on the job.
Flexibility motivates these workers to be more productive and loyal to their companies because they feel like they are respected.
Maybe more loyal – recognizing a good gig when they see it … but, “more productive”?
C’mon man.

Gen Y workers are always connected to jobs through technology.
Technology has made the traditional 9-to-5 model blurry — for all workers, of all generations.
No one is ever out of touch or off the clock.
When workers go home, they’re still working because who they are personally and professionally have become one and the same.
It seems, work e-mail doesn’t stop for anything or anyone.
No argument on this one …
