When older professionals, many who are experiencing a mid-career slump, reminisce about missing the old days, what they are really saying is they miss who they were in the old days. Millennials can be a painful mirror to their once optimistic past.
What it boils down is that many millennials, the ones that many hate, believe that the best thing that has ever happened to them hasn't happened yet. For older generations, many believe that their best days are behind them. And this is why so many hate millennials.
