Anyone else work with a bunch of Old Fogies?? I work in IT/IS for the goverment doing mostly sysad work as a contractor, but I work with a few people that are goverment retirees and came back as contractors and dont know a GD thing. It makes MORE and MORE work for me cuz whenever they cant get something done (usually twice a day) I have to go there and fix whatever they jacked up. The saying "you cant teach an old dog new tricks" has never held more truth in my life. I have never been the youngest person anywhere I worked, I went in the Air Force kinda late 25 and am now 31, so most of the time I was the oldest wherever I worked, sometimes even my supervisors where younger (bastards went in at 18 so had more time to make rank). Now I have to live with: "lookee here sonnee" and "Oh I remember blah blah blah back in the day blah blah". I swear sometimes I just wanna take them to walmart and leave them at the door tell them we changed job locations .

For all the haters,

I think people are living TOO long nowadays, I think 70-75 is a good age to go. Or the moment I start "going potty" on myself

 

This aint too far from the truth.
