[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 56 and would absolutely love to be 36 and consider that young, or at least younger. You sound like you have some kind of problem or a chip on your shoulder. And what you are missing is that to the 36th and 38-year-old, you are OLD. [/quote] Old meaning this. The 36 year old with two kids thinking of a third died to child care, husband, life in general takes full advanced of remote three days a week, Flex Time so comes in early leaves early when in office two days a week. Can’t work one second OT or come in one second early and remote days same thing. all fine. Trouble is I can’t mentor her, get her better trained, take on extra work properly to get her promoted up as a proper succession plan, other trouble the younger staff who report to her are in my office all the time so I am supervising and training them. I have done interviews new staff, staff lunch, regulator meetings without her all fine. But the old people who are crapping out soon is she the answer? Guess what I saw her resume and this lady was a go getter from 21-29. My 38 year old guy same thing. Yet both thing they are the type of younger people we need. Guess what I want to hire both of them in their 22 year old version. Get a good 8 years of work out of then perhaps. [/quote] I don’t think your company needs to find someone younger; they need to find someone who can write in coherent English. [/quote] Despite the grammar police on dcurbanmom, the rest of the country including nyc finance scene and Bay Area tech all speak broken English.[/quote]
