      This is me. I have younger siblings who are fully Millenial and one becomes actually offended if you say it. He hates millenials and was basically born a boomer. I have learned that age is biological but becoming old is psychological.

      I liked the Oregon Trail Generation. It fits pretty well for this 80’s baby. I also fell like I get along with x and millennial equally.

      Working in tech, I’ve been shoulder to shoulder with both a while now. Each generation has it’s quirks, but both want to be seen as individuals with their own motivations and boundaries. Like every other human, those can be wildly different but neither of these two groups seem keen on intentionally shitting on someone’s day.
