On the OP I will note that every relationship is an on-going negotiation. ...and at least the worker is putting in the hours.(adding value.)
Whereas Entitlement is more centered about getting things for
who the person is, rather than value that that person provides. - I saw a story about a teacher who got fired for giving Zeros to kids who didn't turn in their assignments.
For the most part we have a meritocracy - people provide value (some provide more than others) and trade on that value. Yet today's younger generation all got
participation trophies. They all seem to believe that they have merit, even w/o providing actual value. - Yesterday I watched a couple young (arrogant) Industrial Design
consultants squirm in discomfort as approved the work of another on the heals of dismissing their 'contribution.' I have no doubt that they are
blaming the customer for their missing the mark. Did I mention their arrogance?
