[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 4164690, member: 44288"] There really isn't an emoji that conveys my feelings about this post. I was born smack dab inside the Boomer window, 1946 to 1964. I disagree with your assessment of the Boomers being entitled and incompetent. At least the crowd I grew up with and associated with my entire life. In my opinion, Millenials and Gen Zers are the entitled ones. They don't know what work is let alone a time clock. , They don't even show up for an interview when there are employers out there actively seeking people. They scam their employers at every chance with their expense accounts. Boomers aren't tech savvy because they grew up when computers were a Commodore 64 which was awkward and useless unless you wanted to play a cheap version of PONG using a static cling screen overlay or you could learn BASIC and create your own programs saved to a 5 inch floppy that didn't work half of the time and took forever to load. I remember one program had 64 3-inch diskettes and would consistently hose up on the 60th disk which was "unreadable". Tech, so to speak, put a sour taste in one's mouth. [/QUOTE]
