I was the Wise Old Owl of my class in 2017. Loved it! Don’t know how wise I was/am but I was the oldest. Also the most senior!

Maybe when they start back up again, we just need to leave that stuff behind when spending the day with the more woke employees and save it for when we're back in our cave?

Rumor on the street is that the baby went to HR and screamed age discrimination. I don’t think the koolaid day had much to do with it. 25 yo with 40 possible years here. Wagering he’s going to get a type and get picked up to dress like the crew of the Titanic.

pretty thin skinned to work here if that's true...he'll fit in better where he/she can wear a hat and blazer

I remember hearing this rumor about a couple classes behind me too (2017 hire). It is probably either more common than you think or the rumor is just a good one to spread around...

I’m sure it has happened before and it will happen again. From a credible source, this new Baby is a special kind of outlier and pot stirring problem. 5 & 20 at this point but we all have to fly with this new normal
