As in, born in 1966, or 66 years old? Cause last time I looked anyone 66 years old is a bona fide Boomer.

Not necessarily. Check out “Generation Jones”.

I’ve never identified with Boomers but do ID with the Jonesers ;^)

Actually, they would be Generation Jones like me.

Perhaps you need to read the actual book titled “Generation X”, since your timeline seems a bit skewed. The book has gen X starting around 1960, but apparently GenX runs from 1965-ish to 1985-ish

Those in the 1955-1965 cohort are actually “Generation Jones”, since most of them entered the job market during a major economic contraction and they were “jonesing” for jobs, since most major employers were downsizing and “rightsizing”.
