I rarely hear my peers talking about work



I'm gen x, and I'd rather jam knitting needles in my ears than listen to a bunch of schmucks talk about their work. I leave the conversation whenever I'm at a social gathering and the conversation turns to work/jobs/career.

I think it depends on the work. I'm in IT and my brother is a Phys. Assistant, and we both love talking about our jobs. On the flip side, I imagine an Accountant, while having a very lucrative job, might not give two flips about talking about it. I have friends who work in software development who won't talk about it upon pain of torture, but my younger brother is an app developer and he loves going on about it. All Gen Xers.
