Are Gen Y too lazy too work?

Coming as someone who works within the film industry and is a memeber of generation y I find the assumption that working in entertainment isn't hard work quite offensive.

You tell that to me when I've just done a 15 hour shoot with few breaks which stared at 2 am. Or after I've just finished a long editing job where I had to watch the sequence hundreds of times to make sure its up to scratch.

I have a mate that works at a local television station that has to get up at 2 in the morning every day and because its live work every second is accounted for meaning its really quit frenetic work.

People that pursue the "glamorous" industries seriously, know well that its extremely hard work. People that have the dream but don't understand the reality get crushed soon enough.

I used to do editing, that shit was tedious. Especially for the TV show I was doing it for, "Talk About the Good Times of Golf" (never again).
