Be Honest.. Who Else Cant Stand To Be Around Old People?

If you work my job you will see the complete darkness within them. A majority of trump's supporters are older too. And they voice their support of him to me on the phone constantly. Its sick

Right now they dont care about the damage their president does to this country as long as they are free to openly hate or be greedy even though voting for him is against their best interests.

I was majorly aggravated when Biden got the nod but since he is too old for me and is very flawed. But our country has got to a point where you need an old white person to beat a crazy as hell old white person for the white house

We need younger people in these positions of government These older people are problematic for the most part even when they belong to the same party as me

Yes for sure.

But not all old people.

Maybe you just need to find better ones.

My mentor and friend is in her 60s and I admire and look up to her so so much. She's black and Indian, creative af (painter) and super independent. Very interesting upbringing and pov on things. A fountain of knowledge and empathy.

Older people are more set in their ways because they've had longer to settle into those ideals.

@phoenixstorm I dont bring up politics they do They try to get me to engage in it but I dont take the bait

I work at an oxygen supply company as liaison between company and pt which is a nightmare to say the least as far as verbal abuse goes. Been doing this job for 2 years and have tried to get other job but is not easy to find one.

Good news is apparently my supervisor wants to "talk" to me when she gets back in the office If she gives me a written warning Im givng her 3 week notice right then

Im fed up and emotionally drained from this job

My job of the past two years has led me with a complete disdain for people 60 and older. A majority I encounter are racist, sexist, entitled, and just are generally miserable.

As you age you lose friends, family, etc, and so you can only get bitter.

My father who was in his 70's once said he would rather me old yeller him (translation -shoot him for those who dont know the reference) then be put in a nursing home. He said people his age have given up on life, are narrow-minded, and unhappy. He preferred to be around people younger as they had fresh ideas, and are excited about life still and are eager to learn new things

I have had bad experiences with older people in my personal life as well. I had a roommate from hell who was in his 60's. That man was obnoxious, racist, selfish, and a liar. He would never own up to his mistakes or lies.

Grandparents were the same - narrowminded, selfish and somewhat abusive to my mother. I literally get shakes when I know I am behind an older person in a check out line, because I anticipate full on karen like behavior And 90% of the time I am right

Maybe my job is driving me crazy, but I think ill have old person ptsd forever after I leave and wont be able to be around older people for any extended period of time

Has anyone else here dealt with these kind of feelings, or am I just a cold heartless POS?
