No Boomer I'm Working!

Lol I feel ya. But I’m sure most of them are saying it as a joke. Still, it’s a stupid and overused bland joke. Just like the old “Well if it’s not scanning, it must be free!” nonsense. Plain ol’ boomer humor. Just let boomers be boomers.

I was on a 5 minute break and this 80+ year old man comes up on a bike (I was outside) and smugly, he says "you won't get it done like that!" -- I'm a woman and my job is a lot of manual labor with a lot of carrying and lifting, and I would like to see him try to lift and carry everything I do (I'm in a service job but not retail anymore, hope I can still comment here) and I said to that man "I'm on a break! I do get breaks whether you like it or not!" -- I don't actually ever take a lunch break though it's deducted from my pay, but there's never time to take it. I do take breaks on very heavy days so as to not hurt myself -- ugh -- I still want to push that man off of his bike. His generation had more breaks and less time working than I ever had. I'm always working extra days and extra jobs.

Same people who go, "working hard or hardly working?!?! Har har har"

To comment on the last bit of your post. I really like the ones that barge around a corner after being in the store for 8 seconds and just shout “TOOTHPASTE” as if Jesus Christ himself would light up the path toward the toothpaste aisle

I get this sometimes too. Especially when sitting or laying are the only ways I can get at the back of the bottom two shelves. Not going to jack my shoulders up. Or my knees and hips.

Besides, it's also the only way to reach things assholes like these boomers drop and rolls under the shelfbb

I get this all the time. So I'm on the high functioning autism spectrum and from time to time (not all the time) I forgot what I was doing and then just start daydreaming. (FVI My manager and all of coworkers does know and understands this happens) and when it does happen and see it they nicely remind me what I was doing. Nothing wrong right with that at all right. But we have a some what kind Elderle and EVERY TIME he see's me day dreaming or doing a different task that I was told to do by my manager to do. He gets man shouts it out to me and the hole world to hear thankfully we're in a warehouse so no customers but to the volunteers have it makes me look like an ass (I work for Habitat for Humanity Restore). And I'm done I'm not just daydreaming to pass the time or anything. I work my ass off and never a moment to myself. But the thing I have talked to this person about this problem about 15 million times. And I'm sick of it.

(And I have talked to my manager about the problem and I'm not sure if he's taking care of the problem)

I used to sit down when I was doing inventory or redoing a planogram (which I was doing all the fucking time) that was close to the floor.

Hell, I used to bring a bar stool and sit on it behind the counter, especially on Sundays when I worked by myself. I'd ring people up while I was sitting down, lmao. My last job, I'd roll the manager's desk chair out behind the counter (we had a very large space behind the counter) and sit in it in between customers.

I really hate that people get offended by everything. NOT EVERYONE IS ATTACKING YOU!

Okay.

So y'all know that when older people pick on you, or give you a hard time, it means they like you, right? If they don't like you, they mumble under their breath about you.
