[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'll be the lone voice of dissent here and say that this is a big deal in the workplace because of ageism. OP, you should make sure to look as young and active as possible. Your coworker is trying to not get kicked out too early because of her age, and to achieve this, she's trying to muddy the waters about other people relatively close to her age range. You don't need to correct her. All you need to do is express a youthful persona. Dye any greys/whites, take care of yourself, relate now you went skydiving on the weekend (kidding, but youthful activities), not espouse obviously aging traits, like not knowing how the new computer system works, etc... [/quote] Kind of ironic how dated this advice is![/quote] It's always been true. It will never stop being true.[/quote]
