The Millennials generation, identified as lazy and narcissistic, gains in this study a new media and journalistic investigation, which seeks to methodologically observe what are the representations of this young man in everyday life. Specifically, it contemplates the deepening in the research between the idea of work for such a generation crossed by leisure characteristics configuring an ideal type of work activity. This thesis starts from a premise elaborated through in-depth interviews carried out in the master s degree. During the period of production of the dissertation, it was observed that the Millennials, thus categorized in the market, pointed in the scope of work to a typical-ideal aspect to which it was outlined with characteristics and ideas of leisure. These peculiarities are very close to the proposal offered by the Google company, which has a very particular way of working. The company s media representations, in turn, are attributed to an imaginary of experiences that can be seen in documentaries, films and reports in general. Upon perceiving the narrative of the interviewees in the master s degree, the doctoral research started to analyze the neoliberal contributions that corroborate the changes in the subjectivity of the individual configured through the influences of forces outside him, such as large corporations and, of course, his own work. The youth faced with such interventions yearn for a specific type of work and to meet social expectations. Different consequences that reveal a daily life marked by desires and frustrations. The title of the thesis Reality vs. Expectation reveals evidence that the data found in the methodology, Content Analysis, do not follow the paths demarcated by the generational rule.
