I generally find that I can't wait to hire more younger workers and can't wait for the older ones to just fricking retire. I find the older generations to be far more entitled in their expectations for personal benefits they are not entitled to.
This is something that gives me a good chuckle. I read on here all the time about how entitled millennials are, yet there's a sizable chunk of the older generation that simply expects to be paid more and get a sweet retirement deal just for getting older, even if they are actually getting worse over time at their job because technology is passing them by.

I just flew back after meetings with a large defense contractor. During the meetings, I presented some of my analysis of the program using a hybrid of standard tools and approaches I've developed myself over the years.
After the meetings, a younger member(about 30) of the contractor team pulled me(49) aside and asked if he could reach out to me and learn about my methods.
I don't say this to knock him. Kudos him for seeing an opportunity to learn. I'll bet that carries him far.
But please don't think us older guys are all running around doing the same shite we did 20 years ago.
