While at work today, I was discussing the lack of communication going on that day with a co-worker. Another example was pointed out to me and I said "WTF?"
At that point, our 18 year old secretary asked if i knew what that meant, to which i replied that I did as i spend an inordinant amount of time online. Her reply was that she had never heard "an older person" use that phrase before.
I turn 45 in a month but I don't consider myself old by any means. Then I realized that, to her, I am old.
(I actually felt bad for her as the rest of the staff, who are all closer to my age, razzed her for a few minutes en masse.)
What was your last reality check?
to the twentysomethings on this board, it may not seem like much of a reality check but wait, your day will come.
