"geriatric millennials" How old does this author think millennials are?

[–] RudeOnTuesdays@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

It's a term used to refer to older millennials. I am 42 and apparently a "geriatric millennial." I hate the term, for what it's worth.

[–] SolarMonkey@slrpnk.net 4 points 3 months ago

Pregnancies over age 35 are considered geriatric as well. So maybe they are just confused because of that..? (I’m being generous)

Is she saying stupid shit like the to get attention?

[–] DrFuggles@feddit.org 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

maybe, but the article really doesn't justify the headline imo. The article reads more like her statements are coming from a "this worked for me, so try my way if you're struggling" place rather than a "work for me for free, bitches" place.

not saying that in itself is good, but, you know, also way less infuriating than condemning those entitled youngsters

That's great if you live at home with plenty of family money to sustain all.

Experience is priceless, but this is just justifying exploitation.

They are still saying that shit to middle aged millennials 🐸

Chief Marketing Officer ? That should not be a thing.

That is just a fancy word for VP of marketing which also means "not in charge of reality based stuff"

What is with these Coconuts telling other people to be slaves.

Im sure not so long ago some of these same people came from struggling families barely making it living food to mouth.

It has to be the "Fuck you Got Mine" mentality that they got going on.

I'd expect better from a Chief Muppet Officer.

[–] PanArab@lemm.ee 8 points 3 months ago

This is slavery

[–] cabron_offsets@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

Fuck off and die.

Take your crab mentality and fuck right off, Kinjil.
