Your feelings on ageism (prejudice or discrimination against a particular age-group and especially the elderly).

I think with all the crap that millennials get about being lazy and entitled even though, on average, we’re working more hours a week for less money than other generations, that it’s hard to have true sympathy for older generations sometimes. I like to think I’m pretty neutral and don’t have prejudices against people for dumb reasons, but I do have moments where I have to remind myself not to think of older people as infuriating idjits just because they don’t know how to attach a file to an email. Granted, there are people who are NOT older who can’t attach a file to an email so I really do need to “bite” my inner tongue. I think we all make a lot of terrible assumptions about each other based on a myriad of things and I hate that we do it but again, we’re all guilty. I think the best of us try to right that because that’s all anybody can do.
