Kids today are astonishingly soft.
I'd rather be young than old. All you old farts are just jealous we're not knocking on death's door.
I agree. I have the same problem where I work with the young ones.

There is one advantage. At least I know I'm going to live until I'm 64.5, you don't.
You might die in the next ten minutes.............
Youth is wasted on the young
mid 30's here. Anyone remember Boomer? _that_ dude is old.
Uh, just take your hearing aids out. You know, like when the grands are around.Youse fucking kids PLEEZE shut the fuck up...I'm trying to nap here.
Winning-ist thread of the year.You might be...just keep runnin your mouth...
Especially if he keeps runnin his mouth...
Ain't that the fucking truth...
Same. The suck is that I still want to bike for an hour, lift for an hour and do all of the Moms for several hours but my body tells me to eff off. :shakes fist;55 here ... it creeps up on you!
My bro, the plumber, is 58. 14 hour days are his norm. I swear he's on meth. He's quite the health nut, has a nutritionist make his meals, 4K+ calories/day and he's 175lbs.35 is the new 65. I was working with a young fellow last week 40 years younger than me and he had trouble keeping up.

Screw that level of hard work. Catching up with him though. Needs a shoulder replacement and one of his knees worked on.
lol no, you don't get it. The hard work affords him to have/do/etc whatever he wants...at $140/hr because he has the ability/knowledge/skill.There seems to be an odd thing where people are proud of how hard they work or how many hours they put in. It's not really something to be proud of. Your work is benefiting someone else, not yourself. Ones goal should be to work the least while still being able to pay the bills and afford things to enjoy. There is one thing more precious than money, and that is time.

The great soft vs flaccid controversy. Will there ever be a solution?They make a pill for that but if they're young and soft it might be the wrinkled old guys on the other side of the equation causing that

And, it's him, his time. Makes him happy.
Posted before, stopped by and he had a rifle scope on his dining room table. So I picked it up, "That's $3K, be careful." ..whatever...
But when you work 12 hours every day you don't have time to enjoy any of that stuff. Money means nothing if you have no time to enjoy the things it brings you.
