This is frighteningly accurate
The rage I have felt for having to show a doctor making 6 figures how to convert a document to PDF…
No
@@HannahTheHorrible see, you're rage a holics
@@HannahTheHorrible he's a doctor, not IT.
@@heyitsbroski I work in IT. Noone has to be in IT to figure that out. It's literally in the menu when they save the document.
This is hilarious. I remember my grandma explaining baby boomers to me when I was a teenager(she grew up in the grate depression) she said they were all lazy and didn’t know the meaning of hard work and “destroyed America” during the 60’s. It’s just funny that very older generation thinks the exact same thing about the younger generations.
can't wait for millenails calling gen Z lazy
@Myriam M you can't deny the fact that generations do get lazier. As technology advances, more stuff is automated for us, more things are done for us, it ultimately results in a lazier generation as a whole. But, you know, that's the whole point of technology and innovation. To make people's lives easier. All of this isn't to say an individual can't be hard working.
Every generation thinka they're the best and the next lazy
@@nickcunningham6344 uhh..I wouldn't call access to technology lazIness, though?
tech just makes it so people spend less time on tasks that can be automated so they can work on more complex and bigger things.
@Digital Cyclone exactly. And I'm not saying that's a bad thing. But because we can do tasks more efficiently, it results in a generation as a whole becoming more lazy. Before cars people rode horses. Before we tamed horses (or when horses weren't affordable for peasants), we walked for miles. Now I hear fellow classmates complaining because they have to walk across campus. This isn't to say cars and horses are bad. But any technology that makes our lives easier is going to make us lazier, it's as simple as that
"He makes 3x as much money as I do. How does he not know how to operate the internet? "
Not only that bro, but then it’s like, what are you even doing all day then?
🤣
@@Rizzickk It's called work. You should get off your social media and try it one day. You might learn something.
Should be more like 10 to 30 times
@@booksindemand Most middle managers aren't at multiples anywhere close to that. In fact, many make less than the specialists they manage.
Bahaha! That very last one. My husband and I are still young but every time...EVERY time we go out and we're asked "how are you doing today?" My husband's reply is "oh I'm crazy as ever!" And I scream internally.
I always say well I’m vertical and breathing so I can’t complain my wife secretly want to kill me in my sleep lol
🤣🤣
I have a tendency to respond: “Well, I didn’t light my workplace on fire, so I’m fine”, but only to my long time co-workers and friends.
LOL! I feel your pain. When we go out to dinner and the waiter asks my husband if he'd like another cocktail he says "Might as well, can't dance". That's so stupid and I've been living with it for 28 years. 😬
@@mmc9828 I feel like your husband and I would get along famously lol
As a millennial surrounded by boomers, I feel like a guru when it comes to technology, and I don’t know any more than the average millennial….
edit: and there are plenty millennials that are skilled with their hands as well. Ever heard of DIY?
OMG same!!! They think I'm an expert on Excel but I literally just Google everything. They also annoying constantly ask me to print things for them because they don't know how to figure out the printer 🤦🏻♀️
@@5cherrybun lol exactly…I love how they act like knowing Excel is some prestigious skill…literally a 5 minute youtube tutorial video and I can do any function I didn’t know. You can tell when a Boomer wrote the job requirements.
But I bet you can't even change a door knob. Childhood spent playing video games?
@@eberts0604 lol nice try Sir, I’m good with my hands…in fact, even if I couldn’t change a door knob, a simple UA-cam tutorial will have me doing it instantly…which again exposes you guys’ lack of ability to use technology to its potential…..we can do what you can do but you guys are always 10 years behind us in tech knowledge….respectfully. Y’all still watch T.V lol
🤣 my mom when I help her with things "wow you have become so techy! You're such a whiz!" 😂😂😂 ❤️
The reason he was able to buy a house and I can’t is because he brought a lunchbox everyday for 23 years and I buy chipotle everyday.
😆 accurate
Exactly. Plus Starbucks and other WASTES OF MONEY
Toast and avo ? 🤣
Also the inflation between then and now. 20k for a house in California now 1 million for the same property and the wages have only risen 5x in that age compared to 40x the house prices.
Facts
Two things to add: feeling the need to discuss everything in person when it could be a one sentence response via Teams, & printing out emails.
YES!!!
I had one lady who was about 60, receive an email, and when she wanted to point something out would print, highlight, scan and email the highlighted reply in an attachment. If not that, she would print, highlight and come to yours desk. And she would always file these in one of hte 6 file cabinets in her cube.
@@yowmemperor I absolutely CANNOT! 🤣🤣🤣 And I know someone who does the printing and filing steps. It's just so much 😂
@@AliciaReneeGreer plus the refusal to be taught a simpler way, which would take 10 minutes
YES! I asked a coworker how she navigated to a certain screen, she said she'd give me a screenshot and I was so stoked, until she took a screenshot, printed it and handed the printed screenshot to me. Gaah! She also didn't understand why I prefer digital reference materials and doesn't see the beauty of CTRL F. Instead she has print outs of everything and has to study the sheet when she needs to find the answer.
I like to imagine he just walked into some random office building for a few hours to film this
🤣.
I was wondering where this was too! Especially filming in a bathroom. Brad & Jake must be guarding the door, so no one walks in?
Let your imagination run wild my guy
Accurate and funny.
Gen-Xer here. The entire time I was trying to explain browser bookmarks and Slack to an older co-worker (for the 3rd time), I kept reminding myself that all of this is so strange and ever-changing, especially to them. And I wonder when I'm going to find myself behind the times and how I will be treated.
Shhhh, we Gen Xers are supposed to stay invisible!
I can promise you, the only reason msot boomers dont learn technology, is because they saw computers as a trend and chose to not learn
@@MomoKunDaYo that can be true for some but it also just has to do with life experiences for many.
The ones I know are newspaper journalists or are relatives with jobs that didn't require keeping up all the stuff office jobs use. Now my dad can program a giant pipe threading machine from Japan and even helped create patents for his former employer, but finding his bookmarks on a PC browser can be a bit confusing for him. My uncle can use a tractor he programmed to plow a certain way (or something fancy like that. Heh), but he has no interest in learning to really use a PC and various programs and he hates smart phones.
The journalists mostly adjust, but if semi-retired, they do struggle to keep up with new stuff. To be fair, I'm speaking about older boomers.
Ever try Snapchat? So many hidden buttons and boxes everywhere. The youth knows all the intricacies.
I’m a Gen Xer, but I still see and appreciate that empathy.
The imbecile part had me laughing uncontrollably!! SOOO accurate!! 😂😂

Sadly as a Gen X I have come to appreciate that sentiment. I prefer the following:

@@michellewright99 yes!
That face @2:24 My GOD! 😆 I cannot tell you how many times I have had that SAME look when my older bosses taken my "How are you?" as an opening to vent about marriage troubles. In 2018 I had 3 superiors go through a divorce in a 6 month time frame. It was a nightmare. 🤣
I'm pretty sure that makes you an unofficial divorce counselor!
@@TheOReport1994 😆
It amazes me how much crap older generations talk on their spouses. It drives me crazy! They can be so rude, and I'm sure the mentality they take on it at work comes back home
@@audrieking7109 stop yourself the majority of the time it's in good fun...lighten up
@@Mannyr-bu7qv If you say it in front of your spouse, it might be in good fun if they are okay with it. If you say it to co-workers and wouldn't want your spouse to hear about it, then I don't think you can call that good fun 😉 Maybe you do the former, but I mostly hear the latter from both men and women, which is straight up disrespect.
The millennial trying to explain the computers to the boomers is a mood
Ive had to explain over and over to my dad recently why CD-rom drives are no longer neccessary and he doesn't need one in his new laptop >< he got an external one in the end...
I, when a boomer in my 20s, remember having to do all searches, printing, etc., for a member of the greatest generation who refused to even sit in front of the monitor. Technology moves faster, aging brains move slower and one day the young of today will be in the same boat hearing the derision of the youth of that day. And no, you will NOT be one of the cool old people! There is nothing new under the sun!
@@berf9445 unfortunately health care still uses CD-ROMs for body imaging copies still.
I wanted to save some x-rays I had. Unfortunately I own no CD-ROM drives. I tried just handing the cd to my doctor and they said they had nothing to read it. 🤦
@@kittymom56 True
Uh GenX here. Why does everyone skip over us? We exist ya know. We're taking care of our Boomer parents while our Millennial kids are still living with us and this is the thanks we get? 🙄😂
😂 alphabetizing 10,000 names on a spread sheet had me dying 😂
It was great! Now just schedule an email w/sorted spreadsheet to send one month from now with a comment on how much work it was to complete. Enjoy some free time.
My dad's a boomer. Mom is Gen X. 13 years apart. Every time a baby was born, he would take 2 weeks off to help my mom adjust. Best dad ever.
Smh
@@bayyinahharwick9513 why smh?
I'm sure your dad did more than that to be the best dad ever. In my state, a father can technically apply for up to 12 weeks of paid parental leave when combined with FMLA. At my company, a father is approved for 4 weeks of paid parental leave immediately, and can still take more through FMLA if needed. More people should demand this in their state.
Not every dad has that option, but I’m glad yours did.
Basically unheard of for his generation! That's great of him!
Now I understand why my grandkids get sick of me 😆😆😆 “ God has a plan” 😂😂😂😂
I wish you did a comparison on working from home:
Millennial: I love working from home. I never want to go back to the office.
Boomer: Everyone needs to get back to the office!
Yees
I'm a boomer & I hope to NEVER go back to an office ever again
@@GOPGOP-bk2yy Amen. Much different than my coworkers!
I dread going back to the office.
SO TRUE
I work in HR at a larger company and I can say this is 1000% accurate 🤣🙌🏼
Dude that self plug was epic!😂
Lol the boomer explaining his weekend was spot on 😂
the most boomer thing is calling 30 year olds "kids" 😂😂
Oh gosh, I love it when they call us that! Feels so good to know you're not as old as them. Aging sucks lol
Youth is relative 🤷🏾♀️
😂 that’s my husband “those kids” and they are like 35-40; I’m like “ I’m only a few years older than the one you are calling kid” 😂😂🤣🤣
In fairness, Millennials call the new Gen Z hires kids too.
@@hornetsilksong Trust me...in ten to twenty years you'll find yourself doing it. It's like one day they seem like peers and the next you walk through a magic portal and college-folk seem like toddlers
The excel spread sheet he thought would take days to get alphabetized and it only took 2 clicks 😆😆😆😆
Like the boss' sarcasm is on point.
True story. One of the attorneys in my office asked her secretary (a state job where it's hard to fire someone) to alphabetize a bunch of files. The secretary (a millenial) filed everything alphabetically by the first name!
@@kittymom56 Oooooo! What happened after she did that #curiousminds
What is terrible is if the other columns do not move when you sort alphabetically..
And the help advice just did not work for summer reason 😳.
Really sometimes it is spontaneous. I once did a formula that worked only once. When the man said do it again, it refused. Not even when I copied and pasted it! Maybe the second spreadsheet was corrupt, because it was supposed to be the exact same one 🤷. It can definitely take 2 months for some people, but I cracked the code 😎.
@@emmamccoy8381 they were able to get her transfered to a different bureau where they kind of tricked her into resigning, which also meant she couldn't collect unemployment. How she ever got employed as a legal secretary in the first place is beyond me!
The 45 minute over share ending with ‘but god has a plan’. I had a plan too amy, called getting some work done so i can go home 🙄
😂😂😂😂
So true! I maybe come across as reserved but I've got things to do that don't involve listening to my coworker's neighbor drama!

Lol, I literally was silently complaining about my “boomer” colleague 😂😂😂😂. I’m booking my tickets for the show!!!!
I went a few weeks back! Trey does not disappoint 😂
As frustrating as this is, I have to remember that one day I'll be old too and there will be a Gen Z or Alpha coworker who will be completely done with my nonsense, too.
Or be Gen X and just be morbidly amused by everyone’s else’s BS 🤣
One of my bosses loves to cc me on long ass email chains and say "figure it out" and I gotta spend the next few hours sifting back through correspondence after correspondence trying to figure out what the f needs to be done, it's great and super efficient and I love it.
How many bosses do you have?

That seems dysfunctional
That's horrible I only do that to a person if I am fed up with them...

I hope people realize that according the Better Business Bureau the oldest millenial will be turning 40 this year. So you and John Crist are a millennials, Trey.
Their times will arrive when they are laughed at, mocked without mercy
He knows
We do not speak that name.
I think maybe that’s the point, I think that’s why when he’s being the “millennial” character he’s just himself wearing what he’d usually wear.
I think he knows he's a millennial, and the oldest millennials are turning 42 or 41 this year
I set across from these 2 characters everyday and when I'm not wanting to poke my eyes out from them I do find them slightly entertaining

👍 Yessss! Hey fellow Gen Xers 👋
1:13 that send me attachment one more thing literally happened to me the other day. Why can’t you search the inbox??? 😭
“Just eat another apple and go back to work!!!” Depression isn’t real. Hahaha so true for Boomers
I’d rather have that attitude than what we’ve got now. My roommate asked me to call her school for her to extend a book rental bc she gets “anxiety” calling strangers…I hate so many things about this generation but the inability to deal with normal life situations takes the cake.
@@KevinOnEarth_ It is not a good attitude to just ignore mental health issues. People have always suffered from mental illness like depression. The difference is that we can now do more to actually treat it. If it was so stigmatised that people are reluctant to seek help.
@@Ikajo As someone who was diagnosed with anxiety and depression more than 10 years ago, I appreciate what you're saying. At the same time, though, KevinOnEarth is completely correct. People will make excuses all the time and claim they can't do basic tasks because of their "anxiety," and it's just infuriating to see people use this condition, which they may or may not even have, as a crutch to excuse their laziness. Meanwhile, people with actual mental health problems are trudging through trying to be as "normal" as possible.
@@Lazyboy5298 I wouldn't write them off as faking or being lazy. It is hard to place yourself in someone else's shoes. For example, I have agoraphobia. Which means being among a large amount of people, especially if they are moving and are in a small space, can send me into a spiral and panic. Most people would probably call that faking or being lazy. Saying that no one likes being in a crowd. But for me it is more than dislike, it is a phobia that stresses me out and make me avoid certain situations.
Additionally, I have a form of social phobia/social anxiety tied to having to make phone calls. I hate it. Taking calls is fine, calling family is fine. Having to call a stranger? It fills me with dread and stresses me out. Doesn't matter that it is harmless, I don't like making phone calls because how stressing it is.
Add in depression and fatigue. Not an easy life.
"ADHD is just another word for lazy" 🥺
You forgot the part when you text them a simple question and they call you and want to talk for 40 minutes
I'm a millennial, but I was hoping you'd at least give boomers credit where it's due. I appreciate how my older colleagues can calm the **** down when there's a crisis. They've seen it.
Well said!
:) that’s friendly of you to notice
Where you work at? Because the boomers in my life (co-workers and family) are the ones that freak out first and the most (especially if it's an issue new to them).
Granted I am an IT developer, so things not working half the time is what I deal with; but the amount of times I get told I'm too lax about an issue that either 1) can't be fixed by us (2) the fix isn't quick.
Ha in my company it’s the old people freaking out over nothing.
I'm a millennial and they work hard af, Boomers. They're wise too and can be called out when they're being ridiculous. I have boomer friends including my mom who is my best friend. And us Millennials act like we're not going to be out of touch because Lord knows we are hahaha.
This is accurate for teachers too 😂 being a millennial during the year of virtual teaching was brutal. Oh the hours I spent after school teaching other teachers how to do their jobs 😅
As someone who sits right between boomers and millennials i can relate to about half of this lol. To take the satire to a more serious level - Boomer Pro: Work ethic and low stress in business situations. Boomer con: bad communicators and can lack foresight. Millennial pro: adapt quickly and work efficient. Millennial con: easily offended where none is meant. Both groups could learn a lot from each other if they can break annoyance barriers lol! Good post!
The unnecessary metaphors instead of saying “I’m good” is spot on😂😂😂
Bruh, this is scary accurate. I work in real estate and I used to work for these 2 real estate agents who, to this day, still astound me as to how they're still working when they're both on the verge of becoming senile. They've both worked in real estate for over 40 years and I had to drive 30 minutes to their house just to send ONE EMAIL. BRUH
BRUH ARE YOU SERIOUS LMAOO
I just realized I am a Boomer in a Millennial's body 😭
That’s awesome. I’m a gen-X and a boomer in a gen-Z body.
"Guess what I'm having today, the same thing I've been having for the last 23 years!" me in school
Palony 🤣.
Love how you included the tour announcement in the middle of the video. Genius!
I love it when they still print PowerPoints for a meeting when the PowerPoint is in their email and also on a tv during the meeting.
And GenX is over here just rolling their eyes at both 🙄😂
Likewise. Its hard being the middle child lol.
I love the Boomers though! Their cheesy humor cracks me up 😂 and I don't mind helping them with the computer 🤷🏾♀️ Some people just aren't tech savvy. But some of them get it right away.
HILARIOUS- this is my dad and brother who work together at my dad’s financial planning business LOL
I know it was an entirely different scene, but following up “God has a plan” with “Remember? He left the company.” had me laughing too hard
That “Per my last email” got me 😂😂
My husband is a boomer (so am I). At age 16 he built his own computer and began writing his own programs with IBM cards (the current technology of the time) and today is still programming full time in mainly C++ working on big data solutions. Our generation created the technology that others just use today.
So your husband was Steve Jobs. Right.
Amen, sister!
@@Larry_Sycamore Did I say that? No. I just related the truth about his life. He is 6 years older than Jobs.
@@cellgrrl Let me say it a different way.
Though your husband is "tech savvy", he's the exception, and you know it.
Saying that boomers "created the technology that others just use today" does not refute the reality that the vast majority of boomers suck with technology. This fact is not in dispute. Also, here's a cookie.
The fact that some of you boomers still can't accept the fact that you're no longer relevant and just age gracefully like past generations did is disturbing.
@@Larry_Sycamore There are tons of us who had TRS-80s, or Commodore 64's or similar, or a kit computer. We caught the wave early and never got off. It wasn't just Jobs and Woz, there was an army of engineers and programmers building, learning, developing everything from silicone to the software on which everything today rests. At any major university in the 1970's everything was still done on punch cards on an IBM mainframe. The point is many of us stayed current, on the cutting edge, for nearly 50 years.
Your comment merely shows you know nothing about the depth and breadth of effort required to build what you take for granted.
The millennial teaching the boomer how to use the computer for the simplest tasks was me trying to teach my dad how to work from home
How he was so high up in the company despite really not being able to use a computer was beyond me 🤦♂️
Yeah that generation is not adjusting well working from home...I am Gen X and I have been dreaming of working since 1995..
I worked an office job once. And the top dude would literally spend the entire shift in his office doing god knows what. He was horribly socially awkward and would look at me or any other female who was remotely attractive in a strange way. Guy was probably a pervert or hadnt had sex in a decade im not sure which.
I’m not surprised. My dad was born in 1947. He’s retired now but in the late 90’s/early 2000’s, he was the middle school technology class teacher….at home, he didn’t know how to press pause and play on the VCR.
brown nosing and delegation
Yes...my mom is a Boomer when they told her she has to work from home, use Zoom, and convert all her paperwork to PDFs, she had a fake nervous breakdown and retired instantly 😆😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣 it was hilarious! Meanwhile, I'm a young Gen X and I'm in heaven working from home☺️😜
Ha ha. And as Gen X, I am just sitting here laughing at both of them.
Gen X & Gen Z: (laughing and crying)
Gen Z is right there with the millenials on this one 😂😂😂
OMG. I just got into a huge argument with leadership about not wanting to fly to MI for an 1hr meeting. It takes the entire day to fly now with the airlines. I got a huge lecture about how I didn't care about my job. This is the biggest frustration I have with Boomers. Everything is a plane ride when it can be a zoom call.
GenX: Combines the technology competence of Millennials with the "Suck it up, buttercup" attitude of Boomers.
I feel so seen. I work in IT and am constantly veering from “um yeah it’s not turned on, actually” with Boomers to a silent “what the f are you all whining about now?” with Millennials
@@truepenny2514 Haha yes, it's very rare to be seen as a Gen Xer in these skits. I want to see them make fun of us.
Yes, yes, yes to this. Maybe that's why it's rare to see anything written about Gen Xers? It's just harder to make fun of us? That's what I'm going with. 😁
I think Millennials respect GenX for the most part.
The Great War started when Boomer journalists kept making fun of Millennials for complaining about student loans with 6-9% interest rates, just to get the 4-year-degree we were told to get, in order to glide into a job. We felt misled, lied to, all the while living in our parents basements because we couldn’t afford $400+ student loan payments along with rent, food, electricity and water.
@@MononokeLynn I hear you. For what it's worth, GenXers also have these loans. I've been paying mine for 18+ years...at FAR more than $400/month. 🙃 My mom used to earn enough in a summer job to pay her tuition for the next year. I can't even imagine.
I’m def in the boomer category at 67 yo. But I went from spreadsheets on 13 column paper to Lotus to excel. Now I’m (female) controller of the US subsidiary of an international medical device company. I use consolidation software to sync financial data with the other subsidiaries worldwide. I regularly lead zoom meetings and audits. So not all boomers are that clunky. But thanks for the laugh!
As a supervisor in the billing office of a large healthcare company, I can say that it's not just boomers that don't know how to do the simplest things on the computer - I've had the same conversations with my younger employees too.
Me too. Especially with Excel/spreadsheets.
Yeah, I am not sure the age group of your employees, but I have heard that younger generations only understand their phone (since we can basically do everything on it) and there is a loss of knowledge of how to use a computer now. 🤷♀️
Lol we pretend we don’t know how or “I didn’t know” or “ this new system I’m not sure” so we can get away with missed deadlines or basically having to do it at all lol we know the older ones will be like that’s ok I’ll just take over from here 😁
@@marcietodd3337 I'm amazed you haven't been fired yet. Excuses like that only work so many times.
So feel this right now! As always, nailed both sides so accurately! Loved the “paternity leave” part. 🤣
Them going through the menu every time instead of using keyboard shortcuts and then claiming that standard keyboard shortcuts make it more complicated is the most accurate thing I've ever seen. Had that exact scenario with a boomer coworker just a few weeks ago.
That maternity joke is so true 😂😂😭
How many millennials out here realizing they act more like Boomers? Or is it just me
Me, haha
Only on using the mouse to copy paste instead of using the keyboard?
Not me!
🤣😂
As a female boomer I had the delight of training a college graduate who didn't know his a** from a whole in the ground... got paid double what I did with his degree in physical ed (we worked for a insurance co lol)... so it goes both ways 🙄😀
Yep
uh huh
Lucky us Genxers are the forgotten generation so we don't suffer the same public beatings. 😋
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@susan794 Yes all of that.
The "let me regail you about my weekend and marriage problems and general depression" coupled with "lol you can't be stressed /have mental health problems you're a young single person!" Is just *chefs kiss*

Gen Xer sitting here going, yeah you two just fight it out.
Gen X is like the forgotten generation.
Which is a shame, cause they’re the best generation.
@ gps64. I agree as a Gen Xer, but I think that My grandparents and parents' generations "The Greatest generation and the Silent Generation were the best of all! It's so sad that they are now dying off 😢 . They were the wisest I believe.
2:43 The glasses on the tip of the nose!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂 that is too accurate
3:35 "Things could be worse... I could be you" that one made me laugh the hardest for some reason idk why. prolly cuz it's just so stupid lol
I feel this is how cooperate life is lol. Great skits
Corporate
I’m a Gen Xer who is tired of my generation being called Boomers! Most Boomers are at or near retirement age now. My 21 year old thought I was a Boomer and was shocked when I told her I was not, but her grandmother was.
It's the same when people point to gen Z and call them millennials 🤭 Lol, we're all kind of a mess.
Yeah this is aimed at boomers. We grew up with computers and built most of the software in use...
Yep! People referring to kids these days as millennials is off. In the next 5 years all the boomers will be retired more or less. Except my dad. Apparently he's just going to die at desk, because he's over 70 and still working.
@@cbpd89 To add to your point people referring to all of gen z as kids is off too. I turn 28 this fall and am either the youngest millennial or second youngest depending on which list you look at, so there's people in gen z with kids and a mortgage!
This sketch felt odd to me because the boomer is indeed behaving like a boomer - Gen X isn’t quite so bad with tech - but there really are hardly any more boomers in the office these days. Makes the sketch feel a decade old.
Bro these r always so funny, how comes you’ve never done millennials vs gen Z
He has
There def is a gen z one. Just don't remember if it's vs millennials
Gen z... phew good luck on that one
"Copy, copy, copy" 😂🤣😂
Love the shameless plug. Great skit!
Hey - I’m a boomer and I think your comedy panders to a preconceived idea. I’m as savvy as anyone in my office regarding tech. It depends on the individual. I’m amazed at how blatantly you expose your prejudice. I wonder if you would see the humor in belittling other groups of people in a similar manner.
Amen.
You gotta be Gen Z ...
“Just eat an apple and get back to work!” 😂 gold
I frickin love his boomer/dad character. So spot on 😂
Dropped this right around my lunch time. Thank you 😂
This is my job. Every day. Helping boomers use their computers. The best part is when they have that Aha moment and think you're a god when all you did was reboot their computer.
"Just eat another apple and get back to work" LOL
The way he goes “copy, copy, copy, ehhh” at 4:02 had me dying
Lmao!! Every bit of this was perfect! 🤣😭
See you on Friday, Trey!!! 🙌🙌🙌
Oh God...I'm the Boomer!!! This sounds like a conversation between me and my kids!! LOL!!
Whenever someone asks me how I’m doing I always reply with “oh…ya’know…living the dream”. Turns out, I’m old 💀
"Living the dream". Classic boomer/Gen X response!
As a teenager, I feel like I’ve done at least a few of both sides regularly lmao
"This guy makes 3 times as much money as I do." Bro, I feel that. It's astonishing how so many people in senior positions can barely use a computer, let alone the internet.
SO true. I'm not by any means negating their years of expertise, but they should absolutely be required to learn how to use the same tools (ie computer, copier, etc) as the younger generation. I can't even fathom going into an interview, saying I don't know how to use a computer, and actually getting the job. Simply put - I wouldn't. So, how do people who don't know how to use computers STAY in positions that require them to use a computer? And what's more- make a much higher salary? I just.... Smdh. I don't get it. That work ALWAYS ends up being out upon someone who does know how to use technology, and tf is that fair?...
No but they probably have great interpersonal skills, the ability to make good decisions, the ability to delegate wisel6, the ability to lead projects calmly and efficiently, and to leave their problems and drama at home.
@@AlishaArlene life’s not fair.
@@sugarwaterpurple5280 I'm in my 30s, well into my career, and have led multiple teams. I can confidently say...no. Many many MANY of them cannot. They will not get out of the way and retire and efficiency suffers greatly when everyone has to hand hold them through processes and tiptoe around their egos.
@@nicolea6417 It sounds like your place of employment either hires and retains inept people or you have an age bias. I work for a large bank and I know plenty of people 60+ who are great with technology and still sharp as ever, still leading teams, mentoring, etc. I also know some who are terrible with tech, but achieve incredible results doing things "the old fashioned way". I'm sorry you don't think that older people are useful, but there's probably a lot you could learn from them. In my line of work, I have more problems out of millennials than anyone else on my team, but I don't find them useless as a whole.
2:02 to 2:28 is every interaction over the course of my entire career summed up in one section of skit.
"This guy is boss... He's my boss!" I felt that SO deeply. Lol
I love the shameless plug 🤣🤣🤣❤
I’m almost a boomer but considering there was NO INTERNET access until most
Of us had been in our careers for one to two decades, I’d say most of us are pretty intelligent. Millennials don’t know a difference but we do. 👍🏻👏
Correction there was internet access but not company wide for every employee
Gen x’r here….spot on …we know “the before” and “the after” of the WWW.We also “actually learned” things …vs.just relinquishing our intelligence to “oh, I’ll just google it”. Oh the silent internal laughter I have when the WiFi goes down in a room full of millennials😎
why is this boomer sooo accurate that i can see my own grandpa in this
4:11 "command C, push P" 🤣🤣
I have no idea what it's like to work with boomers. I work in tech which is a dystopia where the entire company is essentially under 40.
I'm an auditor and this is unbelievably accurate
As a genXer as I watch this I’m old enough to remember a time I was not a slave to the internet and young enough to value what it brings....but I do feel a little sorry for millennials who never knew a time without it....it literally was a different world in a great way and while I can’t convince a millennial why that was so, the boomer knows. But it’s only in retrospect we can say that which is a shame.
I love when people who dont know what the hell they are talking about generalize crap. Its just the best. Internet was around when i was a kid. But i never used it till i was a teenager because we were too poor to afford a computer. I didnt have a phone either because again. Too poor. Millenial here. Life wasnt roses. I had children with a gen Xer. You guys got kind of the jackpot of things. To this day he is so smug it makes me nauseous. And for idiots who will whip out the violin, we were poor. And my mother was a horrible cook. And sometimes we had to eat some sh*t that wasn't fit for a dog. And shoes that were so tight my toes grew irregularly. Like the japanese binding feet cr*p. And i could barely get my pants on. Not because i was fat but because i shouldve gotten new pants 2 years prior. And i grow up into a world of inflation and zero opportunities. My generation..we never stood a chance. Maybe some of us make it through ok. But seriously folks. I wanna say 90 percent of us dont
Thank you Trey for making me laugh. I'm a "Boomer."😂😂😂 I'm so grateful I was guided to your UA-cam Channel. Peace, Love & Blessings 🙏🏾
Honestly I’m technically a millennial (born 84) but I feel like I can relate to both 😂
Me too. Born in 82. I was the younger brother and pretty much raised as a gen x. I have much thicker skin than most in their 30s.
So technically I’m a Millennial, but after watching this video, I realized that my technological functioning is that of a boomer 🤷♀️ 😂
The boomers (including Bill Gates and Steve Jobs) MADE your technology!
I love the "resend me that attachment email" freaskin nuts, it's like three emails down in your inbox. Or "what did you say yesterday in that text?" ah scroll down and see for yourself!
You forgot the whistling. They whistle as loud as they can whenever they’re walking through the halls. Also, they sound like Glen Quagmire
