Baby Boomer- (n) 1. An incompetent, fat, grey, lazy product of the "
greatest generation," born between 1941 and 1955. 2. The nemesis of
Gen X. 3. Former "Hippie" currently holding tenured academic professorship in disciplines requiring intelligence beyond their predetermined genetic capacity for advanced abstract reasoning. 4. Member of the largest demographic bubble in America that also refuses to retire. See "
Viagrant"
1. Mr. Smith, an overweight, diabetic Baby Boomer and father of two comes from a family of accomplished Engineers and WWII veterans, yet, he has held his current position since the mid-1970's as a clerk/supervisor in an area that could easily be automated with computer code.
2. I can't believe that Baby Boomer is still my boss.
3. Not only I will have to pay for this
Hippie's Medicare for the next 40 years, but this same Baby Boomer may very well reject my proposal for PhD research because my work would
diametrically oppose everything he has
championed since Johnson was President of the US.
4. I can't believe I have a Master's degree and military experience, but my boss, Mr. Smith, a Baby Boomer that graduated high school way back in the 60's, just won't retire, thus preventing me from advancing past him, as easily as I normally could!
