This reminds me of when I hired a young woman to work in the shipping room of the bookstore I managed. Throughout the interview, I stressed that the job was very physical, and would involve lifting boxes weighing 20+ pounds every day. She told me that this would be absolutely no problem. Her FIRST day of work, she showed up with 3 inch extensions on her fingernails. I told her she would have to take them off, and she started shouting that I was disrespectful. We all have a huge sigh of relief when she stormed out.
It has been said here already, but I’ll reiterate that this is a tricky thing. I have definitely seen people benefit from job-hopping in terms of both position and compensation, and I’ve seen people’s careers stagnate because they never stayed in any place long enough to really improve their skills and because they have been labeled unreliable. Should also mention that job-hopping success varies not only from industry to industry but also (at least in the US) on your age, race, gender, etc (unfortunately). So…like I said…it can be tricky

Why are generations such a big deal these days? Because the rich always needs to have us fight each other instead of fighting against them, and the whole race against race or gender against gender is getting out of style. So now it's generation against generation. It's ridiculous.
