[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have worked with a couple of 80 year olds. They were hearing-impaired and had other problems. I helped one retire; she had no sense of what to do and no stamina to do it. It was grim. Most people I worked with in my career retired some time before 70. I think 70 is the limit. During their last few years many became irritable and complained a lot or acted out towards other people; they didn't care. I retired at 62 because I could, luckily, and I didn't want to ever get like that.[/quote] I've worked with quite a few people in their 70s. I can only think of one person who sounds like what you described. The rest were just like everyone else, some better than others, some nicer than others, but nothing that seemed age related. The only hard-of-hearing person I ever worked with was (at the time) in their early 30s.[/quote]
