In gathering the data, the researchers applied a semi-structured interview with open-ended questions. The participants were asked about how they experienced their professional teaching careers, the struggles they encountered, especially in terms of emotions and how they overcome the problems they faced in the workplace. A narrative analysis was used in this study to analyze the interview data. The researchers analyzed the participants’ answers to find important points to answer the research questions. The results showed that the millennial teachers experienced complex emotions such as disappointment, and resentment when dealing with students, colleagues and students’ parents.
