Idiot statement. The best with tech are later boomers and early xers. Built computers. No 800 numbers to cry your problems to.
Right in the middle of Millennial. Glad to experience a pre-social media childhood, a pre 9/11 world, and a somewhat healthy political environment.
- Old enough to remember some of 'pre-tech' society
- Came of age during the rise of the internet, smart phones and social media
- Experienced pre and post 9/11
- Rising cost of college and graduated/entered work force during financial collapse
- Rise of Obama, Tea Party Patriots, Trump/MAGA and the reorganizing of parties

I still have my US Robotics modems in the basement, a 1200, a 1200/2400, a 33.6k, and a 56k.
Exactly, we bought our computers in pieces and put them together.
Could you imagine younger people dealing with Windows 98?
I’m going to be that guy…
Millennials stopped being born in the mid 90’s. Gen Z ended more than a decade ago (2012). Gen Alpha are being born now and have been for a while.
The generations are what AI told me. The data came from this site:

For the first time in history, there are five generations in the workplace. Learn about generational workforce differences and how to best manage each one.

I began my computer education/career in 1982...they were still teaching how to use punch cards then. My college education was in mainframe computer programming (stuff like Cobol and CICS). Mid 90's when I first began using the internet, it was a piece of cake - the only issue was speed of the line we were tied to. Then I began working in wired telecom in the late 90's...I was working daily with DS3 speeds in a dial up internet world back then.
There's a reason why I have (quick count) 6 desktop/laptop computers lying around my house, all working perfect (a couple are 15+ years old)...

Well the generation prior to the boomer generation has always been the silent generation. The generally accepted years by generation are as follows (give or take a year):
- The Greatest Generation – born 1901-1924.
- The Silent Generation – born 1925-1945.
- The Baby Boomer Generation – born 1946-1964.
- Generation X – born 1965-1979.
- Millennials – born 1980-1994.
- Generation Z – born 1995-2012.
- Gen Alpha – born 2013 – 2025.
Apparently mine are workplace generations. Everyone is invited to provide in their comments the appropriate generation.
