You might not hear those words from a millenial, but I’ve heard many millenials complaining that their philosophy degree didn’t get them a well-paying job, or that it’s unfair for employers to expect them to already know how to do a job before hiring them. It feels like a similar mentality, just under different circumstances. (I don’t really buy into the whole “if only they’d worked harder/been smarter/prepared themselves better, they wouldn’t be in this situation” story line, but I also believe that thinking of yourself as a victim is counterproductive.)
