The book "Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture" by Douglas Coupland is credited with assigning the moniker "Generation X" to my generation. I just finished reading it this Sunday after having originally discovered a Swedish language version while on vacation in Stockholm last summer. I like what Doug had to say about my generation and, as he puts it, McJobs:
VEAL-FATTENING PEN: Small, cramped office workstations build of fabric-covered disassemblable wall partitions and inhabited by junior staff members. Named after the small preslaughter cubicles used by the cattle industry.
