Get Ready For Generation Z: They're Texting, Tweeting And Totally Game

When Tiffany Fernandez needs to miss a day of work, she doesn't call her boss. The 17-year-old, an assistant to a Miami clothing designer, doesn't email her either. She sends her a text.

Fernandez is typical of her fellow members of Generation Z, who were born in the early to mid-1990s and are entering the workforce in droves for the first time, according to The Miami Herald.
