If I got approached by a old man in a beard with leather patches and the faint whiff of real-ale, i'd not want to do the same job as him, either.

I've been in this industry for nearly 25 years, and can't think of one time the BCS has been relevent or had anything interesting to say. Watching the social rejects in a pub in Swindon only reinforced my view of them. I'm surprised they're still going.

It's a mature industry. All the "innovation" is about new schemes to push advertising. Boring. Even though I once had some fun getting a new microprocessor on its feet (see signature for a clue), I live for retirement now. Who can blame these kids for wanting a little joy from a quarter of their waking hours?
As much as I disagree with your view of the typical youth of today, I agree that kids probably don't want to think about tech jobs. As long as you find work you enjoy, do it. Find something that's not boring.

I am a teen, and work at Geek Squad. I love my job.

Never knowing when my job will be outsourced to India provides a near constant thrill. Come on kiddies, join the fun! Whee!!!!!
