Talkin' ‘Bout My Generation

What will hurt the most is the loss in experience of the retirees. It will be a rough ride as the new management goes through the learning curve.

What I notice the most between the old and new way of things is the work ethics / attitude are not the same. The new generation of managers has more deligation and not enough actual hands on experience in what they are managing. They never actually got thier hands dirty on the way up...

Start at the top and work sideways.

I believe they have the CAPABILITY to do fine. That is no guarantee that any one of them WILL. But since we're talkin' 'bout MY generation too, please recall the song by the Kingston Trio - "...they're goin' to the dogs, you can see it more and more, 'specially on a Saturday night!" There were more than a few of US who probably wouldn't have got betting odds that we'd ever amount to a can of spinach when we first started out, either.
