[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At my work, it’s GenX who are completely uninterested in taking over for boomers. When the boomers finally retired, we couldn’t even get GenX to apply for those jobs. So millennials stepped up en masse. They all just want to coast into retirement. [/quote]

I think it was a moment in time. In our 30s, the early 2000s, Gen Xers wanted to take over and be heard. We were finally mature enough, better at tech, etc. But the Boomers, our bosses, then in their 50s still ruled the roost. It was just As It Always Had Been.

Then Millennials come in and are handed entire departments in their 30s, and are bosses of older people.  And of course Gen x is like "whatever"- we tried. But I'm sure it stings a little. [/quote]

So ridiculous.   Bosses were in their 50s, and their 40s if you were trying to be honest.  Why wouldn’t they still be working?   Genx groups are currently in their 40s and 50s.  Should they leave to let millennials take over?

I’m sure there are leaders in every age group   The stereotypes are getting as old as GenX. [/quote]
