Linkedin inbox of the week - Ok boomer

[vetran]

Boomer is young person speak for old person. Only old people working in the company leadership and HR would think these are good benefits that will get contractors into the office.

Not understanding OK BOOMER also makes you a boomer in my kids eyes.

Strange these offers seem to be directed at companies trying to attract younger staff.

The idea of having to spend time with some of my colleagues for free would horrify me!

Though i did grab some fruit from the basket last time I was in the office.

I know what a boomer is, I just didn’t know if you were referring to the recruiter. Thanks for giving context to your original comment.

Rather a stupid term with unfounded generalisation. I have no age prejudices and have employed people of all ages and nationalities based on abilities. Furthermore, I have considered people 20+ years younger than me to be an old fart in they way they act or drive their car. You seem to be just a plain idiot.

Well it's not unfounded generalisations...

A boomer isn't short for baby boomer. A boomer is someone who denies that baby boomers have robbed future generations, it's a narcissistic arrogance.
