0:00.0	Millennials, what do you want to get off your chest?
0:04.0	I'm tired of having to be certified in everything to do something.
0:08.0	People from the 80s just had to apply themselves.
0:11.0	We have to apply ourselves and stand out in a sea of competition.
0:14.0	Even some entry-level administrative positions require certification.
