I have some #GenZ coworkers and was telling them about how we used to take our car stereo face plates with us when we left the car back in the days when stereos weren't integrated into the dash and you wanted a nice one.
40something #Creative#GenX#INFJ#Freelance#GraphicDesigner in the #UK recovering from the design industry. Enjoying figuring myself out. Determined to be happy. I’m going to finally be myself here.
Like it when things line up. Proud but exhausted parent. Cracked egg. My best friends are all computers.
Kiddo was complaining about difficulties #dating and meeting people in this era and that #GenX had it way easier. She bemoaned playing the dating app game; told me how much harder it is for #GenZ.
So, I told her about Personals Ads and how you’d get a bunch of letters with or without photos in response to your ad and you’d then have to respond with a letter or a phone call to those you wanted to meet. It took time to get a date that way!
She decided our analog dating program was much worse. 😏
the problem with #GenX is we grew up assuming we'd be killed by nuclear fire or AIDS or ourselves long before ever getting old, so when that didn't happen we weren't quite sure what to do when age came
