I worked at a technical recruiting place where a guy said he couldn't find a particular type of engineer, and the manager called a surprise meeting to announce that the guy "found the end of the internet". He then sarcastically congratulated the guy and sent him home for the day at 1:00; meanwhile, everybody else went back to work.

One time I was in the break room and I know fuck all about sports. So some dude that I've never talked to before comes into the breakroom and, after seeing me:
"Did you see the rams score three and two touchdowns with bases loaded and gRetsky on third with Woods shooting the three pointer past 3 and first down home run?"
At least that's what I sounded like to me.
I just starred at him like a deer in headlights.
He stared back like a deer in headlights, shocked that I was unable to respond.
We starred for what seemed eternity, then sort of silently went our separate ways.

Kek my boss is stereotypical boomer, here's a few of his cringey go to lines:

>We need to start turning the handle on this
>can you tic tac with *insert name here*
>so I've set up a 'database'... (it's an excel spreadsheet)
>I have some work I need to catch up with you on and handover - translation: I've taken on some work that I now realise I don't know how to do and that may not even be possible - so I'm going to offload it onto you so you get the blame.

Is there anything worse than boomers in the workplace?
