There is definitely some truth to this so-called "millennial" generation, Spoons is right that it has always been there to a degree but before Facebook the 'like' and instant gratification that comes with it simply didn't exist. I recently employed a 22 year old in my team, and if I don't tell him he's done a great job every 5 minutes he thinks he is doing something wrong. He even emails me individual lines of code to congratulate him about. I've never seen this behaviour before with older members of my team, I'm sure it's because of social media.
I have seen a few egos looking for massages! Have you seen a lot of "my torch is brighter than your torch"?
What I have witnessed lately are "snowflakes". Very delicate and fragile.
