[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How enlightened are they? How educated? How worldly? I'm struggling to find the right word, but are they familiar with quasi exotic things?

We were all just talking about Christmas being two weeks away and how it has snuck up on us. Somebody said 'what's your meal going to be this year'? The new guy said Bouillabaisse. Literally three quarters of my office didn't know what it was.

And then I realized I was working with people way less cultured than myself.[/quote]

You must be super old to try and make a troll post using a French recipe as a cultural touch point. [/quote]

You had to Google it, didn't you?[/quote]

So you are old then?[/quote]

So, this hurt your feelings, huh?[/quote]

Well I answered your question and explained myself, meanwhile you avoid mine.  But I would consider therapy as you glide into old age, being “cultured” and judgmental of your peers will hobble and maybe end your career.  You should examine why you are searching for a reason to be “better” than them — are you compensating mentally for poor performance or just that they are younger than you?  Either way, it will end up with an EEO complaint or similar. [/quote]

Your entire premise is that 43 is old. Which is not only wrong, but ageist and judgmental in itself.

Stop lashing out and become comfortable with being around perople more cultured than yourself. It doesnt have to be a bad thing. Just man up and admit your weaknesses.

PP who said they were 43 was not OP. [/quote]
