Folks get a but too wrapped up in this generational thing.


I don't think named generations existed until the Boomers.
It wasn't a thing, people lived and died.
Then there was this huge post war baby boom...

Talking generations is like talking race,minus the political correc....no, the PC exists
for a certain group if it's their oxbeing gored.

Right now I work with guys from 19 to 64.

Our very best worker grew up laying block with his dad.
He is 63, I don't think his birth year has any bearing on how he works, 3 of his 4
boys are bustin'it too. He is also careful with money and makes smart, reasoned
Decisions.

One of our biggest crybaby, lazy workers is 60.
Born to well off, older, Greatest Generation folks, the Only Kid.
Never allowed to work, played sports.
4th marriage, chases the next material item that might make him happy.
His birth year ? Nope. Not a factor.



That's the trend(s).
How the parents raised the kid.

Love crapping in people's Wheaties over this, "These Kids..........

"Ain't nothing wrong with these kids, they aren't one bit different than your great grand parents were at that age. What's different is the parents. Parents that work the clay,
form it, shape it, put it in the fire....usually produce a valuable product.
Ones who don't, get a useless blob!"

Parents who say they have good kids..Usually don't!
