Twenty-niners are anyone who’s younger than a boomer (1965 or younger) who get converted to part-time and lose their full time job so that the business isn’t on the hook for Obamacare.

29ers: Employees who work less than thirty hours per week and are therefore classified as part-time. They usually do not qualify for benefits.

Under the Obamacare law, employers are only required to provide (expensive mandated) healthcare benefits to “full time” employees which are defined as ones working 30 hrs/week or more.

There is a big push in a lot of industries to convert employees to this part time category, and they are termed “29ers” .
