Since the beginning of time, there’s been a battle that’s still going on. What battle, you may ask? It’s the battle between creators and consumers. HUH?? Yes, you read that correctly: the battle merely focuses on what creators see and what consumers see, and it all comes down to the price of the final product or service. We must have said at least one of these things: “Wow, the price is too high!”; or, “Can I get a discount?”; or, “I don’t see why it’s so expensive.” I must admit, I’ve said each one of them at least five times in my life, and that was before I started calling myself a graphic designer

In the business world, you decide consciously whether or not to communicate your message and your medium. However, the decision to communicate itself is a message. Whatever action you take, it says something about you. Even if you remain silent, you are saying something. From this perspective, it is not possible to not communicate.

We, the younger generation (millennials), are taking over the workforce. Still, for the managers and supervisors who mostly are in a higher position than us who are just stepping into the workplace, it can be really hard to deal with us, especially since we have different looks and perceptions of work and how to deal with work. But to better understand it all, we must see it from both perspectives.

Lately, we Millennials have been asking ourselves some important questions: ‘What is the deciding factor when choosing a place to work?’ In my office, the most common answers are, ‘A place where I feel at home, ‘A place where I can grow and be happy.’ These answers don’t mention money. Instead, they center on a healthy corporate culture. Why do my peers and I have different job expectations than previous generations? Is this a sign of some shift in generational attitudes?
