What Is "Generation Y" ?

[Alcan]

Hmmmmmmmm.............. Generation “Y”



I 've always wondered this myself... and now I know !!

People born before 1946 were called The Silent Generation..

The Baby Boomers are those born between 1947 and 1965.

Generation X people have been born between 1966 and 1979.

Generation Y were born between 1980 and 2010

Why do we call the last group Generation Y ?
I always thought it was because they say....
Y should I get a job ?
Y should I leave home and find my own place ?
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours ?
Y should I clean my room ?
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes ?
Y should I buy any food ?
