[quote=Anonymous]So here is the thing about people 40 and up - all of the stereotypes about old people really don't apply. People born in the late 60s and 70s were part of the technology age. Steve Jobs, Apple, Microsoft, Yahoo were all part of the generation. So was rap and hip hop. Many of the pioneers are just flipping over to 50. Once upon a time youngsters valued the maturity and wealth of knowledge that elders brought with them. The Millennials are always complained about because they have the least amount of respect for anyone over the age of 20. One colleague who just flipped 30 made a snide remark about her mom calling her a baby boomer because she wanted her to learn to something new. Just a level of contempt and disrespect that exists with many younger people. [/quote]
