Which is true: The majority of young-adult workers (a) just fell into their current jobs by chance or (b) have mainly positive feelings about their jobs. Oddly enough, both are true, judging by the results of a Public Agenda survey of 18-25-year-olds. Among those who work full- or part-time, 63 percent said they ended up in the job “more by chance,” vs. 36 percent who said it’s something they’d been “hoping to do for quite some time.”
