Pumps' Perplexities

As my avid readers will attest to, from past postings, I
believe that the cell telephone is "dumbing down" its
users because they do not have to think their
way out of a situation (thereby learning something) all
they have to do is call someone else for an answer or
decision......

My Jabunyaville newspaper had an article that confirms
my suspicions.....It concerned the younger generation,
called Millennials or Generation Y.......Seems that their
parents, The Boomers, in catering to their every wish
and with constant contact via a cell phone, have created
a generation which can not think for themselves.....

The Gen Y'ers, "often do not know what to do next",
lack realistic expectations and a work ethic".......Instead
of learning while young, they have to find out what life
is like in their late teens or early twenties......

The newspaper article concerned parental interference
with the "job interviews" of their children.....Cell phones
are for 911 or emergency calls, not to confirm a "benefit
package" offered by the Human Resources Department of
a pizza emporium.......Pumps
