Some of you don't fully understand just how rampant ageism exists when it comes to hiring, promoting, and laying off workers. I worked as a recruiter/HR for several years. Ageism is one of the few things recruiters and hiring managers openly admit to as their reasons for discriminating against a job seeker or employee. I've had hiring managers say to my face the following: 👉 "If I hire him, he's just going to retire in five years so why bother?" 👉 "I don't want to train grandma to use a computer." 👉 "You can't teach someone that old anything new." 👉 "Old workers are terrible because they don't listen to anyone younger than them." You see ageism in how companies hire, promote, and develop older employees. I am sure folks 45 and up can attest to the challenges they face in the job market and even at work. The irony is many of these older workers advocate for the removal of the very programs/services in place to protect THEM. So my advice is to educate yourself, know your rights, and advocate for yourself. Y'all be easy!

It’s natural to feel uneasy about AI—especially when you hear about automation reshaping industries. But here’s the truth: while AI excels at repetitive tasks and data processing, it lacks the human touch that makes professionals like you indispensable. Think about it: ✅ Strategy: AI can crunch numbers, but it can’t set long-term goals or craft a vision. ✅ Relationships: Machines can send emails, but they don’t build trust or nurture client connections. ✅ Judgment: AI can analyze patterns, but it doesn’t understand nuance or make ethical decisions. AI isn’t here to replace you—it’s here to amplify what you do best. The secret is learning to use AI to free up time for the work that really matters: creative thinking, problem-solving, and driving results.
🚨 Burnout isn’t from doing too much – it’s from doing what doesn’t energize you. 🚨 If you’re feeling exhausted at work, it’s time to pause and take inventory. What’s truly causing the burnout? Is it the endless meetings? The lack of purpose? The tasks that drain instead of inspire? 💡 Start by asking yourself: What activities light me up? What feels like a drain on my energy? Am I aligned with work that reflects my values and passions? Burnout is a signal, not a life sentence. 🌟 Take that first step toward creating a career that fuels you, not depletes you. ✨ What’s one small shift you can make today? Let’s talk about it below! ⬇️ #Burnout #CareerFulfillment #GenXCareers #WorkLifeBalance #ReclaimYourEnergy
Calling All Gen Xers! Did you know you have a secret talent that’s in high demand right now? The National Archives and the National Park Service are on the lookout for volunteers to help transcribe Revolutionary War Pension Files. (Okay, it might not sound sexy, but hear me out.) You know why they need us? Because we can read cursive. That’s right—at a time when we sometimes feel forgotten or overlooked, this incredible superpower of ours is making a comeback. I mean, let’s be real: how many Millennials or Gen Zers can even decipher cursive handwriting? (Spoiler: not many.) I honestly don’t know why we’re not in any Marvel movies yet. Cursive Woman? Captain Penmanship? The possibilities are endless. But in all seriousness, it’s kind of cool to know we’re needed. So, if you’ve ever wanted to channel your inner historian or just flex that cursive-reading muscle, this could be your moment to shine. Hope this gave you a reason to smile today, Gen X. We may be overlooked sometimes, but we’ve got talents no one can take away. #GenXPower #CursiveSuperpower #WhatsNextGenX #NeverUnderestimateGenX #WeAreMarvelWorthy
