Geriatric millennial? What in the ageist fuuuuuuuuu is this

like

Haha, I actually don’t disagree with any of this other than the goofy name

When I read people on this app grumping about hybrid or staying partly virtual, it feels like another world to me. My team is global so we were already doing most of this, and close to half of us are in this “geriatric millennial” band so we’re good at the interfacing f2f, but also really keen on ways of engaging, coaching, and collaborating virtually

I’ve been able to do so much more mentoring in a structured way this year, and the team is kicking ass

For real. Honestly agencies listing hybrid as a perk rather than operating model will be rightfully branded as ancient.

Oh Jesus

No. Those bridging the divide are called Gen X. Maybe “infantile Gen X” but definitely Gen X.

Yeah that makes a ton of sense

My back has been hurting more lately

I prefer ‘elderly millennial’. Thanks.

How To Be Productive when Your Job Is Boring

I’m losing my damn mind at my job. I’m 23 years old and I’m a very ambitious, hard working individual but my job is literally so boring, I feel that all of my habits and skills are slowly deteriorating. I mean I do nothing all day, most days.

Im tired all the time, I can’t think of anything to do. I try to watch educational videos/pods, but there’s only so much. Any advice on how to fill in the time in a productive and entertaining manner?

Lots of respect for the staffers at Spotify if they end up walking out of their jobs for something they believe in.
