Us Xers are use to be forgotten and passed over. On the bright side, we are so unimportant Millennials and younger hate on the Boomers not us.

[Jonty30]

Guess who the children of the CEOs are? If you said gen X, you’d be wrong. That is why they are getting passed over in favour of Millenials.

[Eccl 10:2]

The whole idea of classifying generations as Boomers, Gen X, Y, Z, Millennials, etc. is just more Identity Politics.

The perpetuators of this nonsense are trying to get everyone to believe that individuals in each “generation” all act, think, and speak the same way.

What a load of very dangerous and divisive crap.

I’m just keeping my head down and continuing to work and stockpile. Boomers have destroyed traditional workplace hierarchies, and the Zoomers are filling the power vacuum with trivial crap from the top down. “Paying your dues” is a pipe dream anymore. I’ve seen too many useless people ascend to leadership and stay there.

[ClearCase_guy]

they operated on the belief that if they paid their dues, their time would come.

That's so 90s.

The Wall Street Enquirer is such garbage now, stupid article for a stupid paper.

Even is true to some extent the whole supposed zeitgeist of Gen X is one of being looked over and hence developed rugged independence, so why would we even care then?

[Lowell1775]

The best will leave and clear cut a virgin forest on their own and start new empires, new visions from their own heart, soul, bone. muscle, sleepless nights putting at risk all their wealth and pride.....oh, wait...we are talking Gen X’ers here.....so never mind.

There are few “best”.

Just mewing litters of soft, self-entitled mommy’s boys free-riding the great commercial machines built by better generations.

[cableguymn]

those little turds call me a boomer all the time.

I am gen x.

Amusing skit, just over 1 minute long, about Boomers handing over the reins to a younger generation.

[Vesuvian]

If everything works out, we won’t have a Gen X president either. Trump then 8 years of JD.

[packrat35]

CEO’s in their 60’s is nothing new and different. Who writes this crap?

[Organic Panic]

‘We’ grew up long past the days where people worked for the same company their entire working lives. Like my dad. Had the same job for 40 years and retired. Those days are LONG gone. And what bazaar statistics. How many CEOs are there in a company??? ONE.

This story is just something to stir up envy and hate for companies. Who is really complaining besides some MSN reporter?
