Boomers explainedQ: "Why do boomers print their emails?"
A: Ink-on-paper can be submitted as evidence in a court of law. Holding up your cellphone and waving it in Judge Judy's face just pisses her off.

A: Your generation is addicted to multi-tasking. The dots are there so you know when to..gum wrapper...
A: We were raised to not say anything if we could say something nice
A: Wait-staff is very busy. They are not there for conversations. It is not rude to order in a short, declarative sentence like "I want the Club Sandwich with sweet-potato waffle fries." That is NOT rude.
A: They don't argue over every detail.
A: News flash: Greta is not a boomer.
A: All that glitters is not gold. All who wander are not lost. Sometimes we like to see the sights. Sometimes we are carrying 150 keys of white powder and we are avoiding cops. Next question.
A: Are you referring to the fact that I put the truck into Park, turn off the music and turn off the engine so the order taker can hear me talk? It is a matter of respecting the person on the other end of the gobbly-gook speaker.
A: Boomers love drilling through to a real, human for a couple of reasons. For one thing, a human has a brain and is more likely to connect you to the proper support person than randomly pushing numbers. For another, if we don't insist on humans, they will be wrung out of the system and they will not exist when we really need them.

Poverty is not good for your health. The fallacy is that people born in that county will stay in that county.

Chuckling about boomers wanting a REAL PERSON (tm) to speak too.
ReplyDeleteI was just chatting with a nice young lady on the phone who asked why I didn't use the automated system.
I replied, "So you would have a job".
I got a tiny "thank you".
I know several truck drivers, boomer and younger, who drive to avoid weigh stations and inquisitive officers/ inspectors.
ReplyDeleteI know others with vehicles in ... Questionable ... Condition who prefer to avoid official notice.
FYI, I use ellipses (...) but am definitely not a boomer.

Your "bonus image" does not have any data in it, really. it doesn't break down for racial and other factors, which greatly influence the outcomes...
ReplyDeleteEastern Kentucky and West Virginia are white. Mississippi Delta is black. Anomalies "out west" are Am-Indian.
DeleteI think it is a poverty and distance-time to medical care issue more than being tied to race.
Both those are pretty tightly tied to race. If you aren't Inupiat, you aren't likely to be born or live in the Y-K Delta.
DeleteAh yes, a live body... Snerk...
ReplyDeleteThat goat reminded me of a long time ago when riding thru rural N.Y. State on the way home from college on Thanksgiving break we passed a field full of brown cows with cow written on their sides in bright red!
ReplyDeleteI like the way that the tribal people all give thanks before they sample the cheese cake.
