gfunc,
Wholeheartedly agree, young people today, which most of your instructors are have no idea.
Its a service industry, people expect service, not some sprog kid who is convinced his/her sh..t dosnt stink because they have a few gold bars on their shoulder, treating them with contempt.
Someone should have told them they were on the bottom rung of the ladder to a real aviation career, with a long way to go.
Those people coming in the door are the ones paying your salary and expect service, and an experience for their hard earned dollar.
