[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 49. 67 probably used to be elderly, and could be for some people, but not for many. It is truly just a number now. I think once you hit 80 you are definitely elderly even if 'young'.[/quote] 80 is never young. Even at 65 people have lost much of their intellectual capacity, particularly in their ability to learn new things and adjust to new situations. Everything slows down for them physically and mentally. And because they're losing their ability to reason, they don't always realize when they've become a useless bum that is unable to feel or smell that it's time to change their Depends. It's disgusting to be around most people older than 70.[/quote] For many on this board who continue to spew their hatred and ageism, I can only hope that when they hit the apparently horribly old age of 65+ they realize how ridiculous they sounded when they were younger. To imply that people over 65 are useless bums who have no capacity to learn new things is one of the most insulting and disgusting things I’ve ever read and no, I’m not in that age group myself. [/quote] We've all know it's true. No one ever wants to work with elderly coworkers. Walmart greeter is right around the typical limit of their capabilities.[/quote] Harsh but yes I wouldn’t want to work with someone who’s 67 [/quote] I work with a 58 year old who is struggling to learn new things. To be fair, I don't think it's all her age. I think most of it is a side effect from her weight loss shot. [/quote]
