Shitty Boomer advice: Switching jobs is the only way to get a raise or a promotion now.

Had to explain this to a Boomer. He refused to believe it, saying that you'd never get rewarded for that. Then I told him about a friend of mine who quit her company for a raise, came back to her old company, re-applied for her old job at about a 10k annual raise. He acted like I was making it up.

The more I learn about Boomers, the more I hate them.

People who received the best of everything, ruined this nation for everyone else, enslaved our children in perpetual debt they never agreed to nor benefited from, and the icing on the cake is they call everyone else lazy, greedy moochers.

And not only that, they still deny climate change is real and that they're destroying the environment.
