[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This whole ageism stuff is really depressing folks. Not everyone has had the luck despite hard work of a very high paying job by 50. Now if these people are likely going to be laid off and never be able to find another professional job again after 60 then this country is in serious trouble.[/quote]

It is! And I'm wondering why all the attention now??!!!

Because BOOMERS never experienced Ageism? They were worshiped for their wisdom and knowledge and dug in and stayed in their senior roles as long as they wanted - 60s, 70s.

Because GEN X is now the ones aging and we always get the shaft? What else is new.

Because millennials (the younger ones anyways; the older ones are in the same boat as genx) are now hiring managers and they are ageist?

I hate generational generalizations, but this one is truly generational and I'd like to understand.[/quote]

GenX rarely gets to advance to leadership because of toadstool Boomers. So hitting 50s and 60s — C-YA![/quote]

What is a toadstool boomer?[/quote]

Sit and grow in place like  fungus[/quote]
