excuse me?

My generation seriously disqusts me 90% of the time. I look around public places and hate that because of my age, people associate me with my peers. First off everyone acts a little weird a times and I honestly understand that, and I realize I haven't lived anyone elses life so I shouldn't judge, but when I look around at kids my age I can't stop. I feel that the majority of my peers have no sense of what class is or what work ethic is. It honestly makes me mad and sad all at the same time.
The class thing is a huge issue in the area I live and work in. What ever happened to self respect? I don't understand why no one dresses appropriately. I realize its fun to get dressed cutely and possibly a little sexy to get some attention but there are BETTER ways to do it then have EVERYTHING hanging out. That may be sexy to some people but not the people that want to treat you right. Trust me a little bit more mystery but goes alot farther. Plus guess who else is looking at you, OLD MEN. Not just the single ones but the husbands and fathers as well. You may think you are hot stuff but the majority of us just make fun of you once you are out of earshot. Another thing is pda. I was at school yesterday and on the grass in front of the library was a couple laying down on top of each other making out. Seriously thats gross and i am probably not the only one that thought that. Class is not just self respect though, it is having respect for others. When in public keep private thoughts to yourself. Tell your buddies about the oral sex you gave when you are in the car after you leave the resturaunt. People in the next booth CAN hear you and don't want to hear the hardcore details while trying to eat dinner. k? Sorry that was just a rant but t happened yesterday and seriously disturbed me. Class is easier to achieve when you are cultured and think about more than the preffered sex, crass jokes, celebrities and myspace. I am not saying that i am not obsessed with myspace or that all of that is awful,Everything has its place though. It just seems like when i talk to most kids my age they dominates our conversations. I am so sick of shallow conversations I really am. GO TO A FREAKING MUSEUM! Trust me there is some really neat stuff beyond the myspace culture.
Ok so now about work ethic. Ok so i am not all for capital America but a job is a very important deal in a young persons life. Even if you dont really need the money you will one day, and you want the experience and knowledge before you get thrown out on your own and have no idea how to present yourself in the job situation. A job also gives you a real grasp on the true value of money. Another good thing about a job is it proves that you can be a part of society and take care of yourself in a sense. Work ethic is a very important thing in my idea. I was raised that if someone is paying you to do something, do it well. When I started my current job and did stuff instead of just standing around I got questioned constantly. It was like I was the one doing something wrong. My coworkers are more used to me now but cleaning or organizing while the boss wasn't there was a foreign concept to them. I just want to instill in my generation if we all just stand around at our jobs nothing will get done when we are in charge of our nation. Our parents will die someday and then we will have to do stuff for ourselves like run the country and take care of the poor. It may seem silly that I am taking my ice cream scooping job so seriously but, I am training myself for the future.I plan to step up and take the responsibilty and I hope the rest of my generation is willing to as well.
In conclusion, have some respect for yourself and the people that have to be around you. Whether it be through covering up a bit, saving that juicy detailed conversation for a more private time, or actually working well at whatever job you have.
