Are you pleased this fellow is no longer employed there?

Might you have info on his ethnicity or class that you can share since you already commented on his age/generation (in a derogatory manner)?



I am just trying to understand your point of view and I'm having difficulty.

Might I ask your age and profession or line of work? It's OK I don't expect you to reply and I am not trying to start a flame war.

Take care.

Looks like he deleted his post.

I doubt the mechanic/tech was even that old. I have yet to see anyone use the word "boomer" correctly. So much so that I automatically assume people who call others that are morons.
"People born from 1946 to 1964, during the post–World War II baby boom."
Youngest boomer today would be 55-56 years old.
Makes the whole situation even better if the guy wasn't even an actual boomer. Neither of them using the right names.

I crave saimin for breakfast from some dive in Honolulu. You know, in a double deep styrofoam takeout container, disposable chopsticks and plastic Chinese spoon.

The problem is, Uber Eats doesn't work with Fedex Air Cargo.

I'll need to source it locally, until I return.

Here's some food pron I Googled:

anyone 'young' now is a millenial as well(1981 and 1996). i get triggered every time they try lumping me into the same grouping as a 10 year old video game addict.
