[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gen X is an interesting bunch I am a boomer. I had a Gen X guy wishing for me who was 10 years younger. I had a pretty big job at retail me and he was second in charge. I literally promised to him when retired and setting him up to take it. I am retiring at 67 normal retire by age he said I don’t plan in working last 55. That was 10 years ago.

I landed another great job but now 61 and I have a second in charge 52 and another behind at 45 I said I am retiring at 67. The 52 year old said I am retiring in 3-4 years and the 45 year old said I want to call it quits in. Prorate by 50.

My office is literally filled with boomers set to retire in corner offices and people won’t set up. I guess Gen Z will take my job in 2028.

Please, can there be some minimum communication standards on DCUM.  How on earth do you have a "pretty big job in retail" when you literally cannot write a single coherent sentence.  Do you even understand what you wrote?[/quote]

+2. Can you try again in English, first PP?[/quote]

Gen X, Milenials, gen z are lazy and want to retire young can’t even do succession planning.

I sat down with my 45 year old staff (wet behind the years man/child) I asked long term plans.

He babbled about maybe getting PhD and teaching one day and maybe passing CPA test and starting his own accounting practice and his work be down to early retirement.

I throw a bucket of cold water on him and said I don’t get how you got time for that when you are here full time the next 22 years. Retirement age is 67 and I want you to take my job in 5-6 years. I am one from CEO then do my job 7-10 years and maybe can make run at CEO by 58-62. Then retire 67.

His jaw was down and confused and the little man child says my kids are 14 and 12 I want to partially retire in 6-7 years. And just teach or do some side consulting.

At work the 57-65 crowd needs people under 40 now to replace then. I will be replaced by gen z when I retire in 2030 for good. No point even mentoring anyone over 35.   [/quote]

How can you possibly be in line for a CEO job when your communication skills are so poor?

Based on your timeline above, you are GenX…so how is GenX so lazy?

You do realize the average age of all CEOs in the US is 53…so I guess not all GenX are lazy.

Also, you don’t think the greatest generation said the same or worse about boomers?[/quote]
