As someone at the older end of the Millenial generation, and someone who grew up in Europe and now lives in North America, I could only read the WSJ article - and all the comments - with some amusement.
What I really read - underneath the "durn kids" feeling - was a generation waking up to the fact that having some of the lowest vacation time in the industrialized world (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_statutory_minimum_emplo...) might not be such a great idea, and a generation of older employers not being happy about it.
