There is an office equivalent of getting spanked by older people when you're in your twenties. It's mortifying.

Pretty sure co-workers are betting on whether you'll ever get married or not.

Parents call at 1pm on a weekday. Ask what you're doing. Sound surprised when you tell them you're at work.

You have to tell the 65 year olds how to properly use a tanning bed so you don't have to listen to them complain about their crisped breasts all day.

Administrative assistants had to check to see if your panty hose are real. Then called you an old lady for wearing them.

Your chia protein shake is considered new age hippie nonsense. Then informed bacon and eggs are better for you.

You're the abnormal one in the office because you aren't adding fiber supplements to your beverages in the morning.

You're told about the "Good Ol' Days" in the office. You aren't convinced life before cell phones was the "Good Ol' Days." More like something out of the Land Before Time.

Am told by older people how they used a manual typewriter. Doesn't mean they can actually use or type on a computer.

"Oh, well you probably don't know what this is because it was before your time." I was born in the 80's not under a rock.

NPR keeps doing stories about millennials in the work place. Pretty sure they don't consult millennials in their work place.

Your colored tights are a regular conversation piece. Not your conversation.

You are shamed when retired people respond to emails faster. You only got 10 emails to respond to in last 10 minutes.

The interns never take you seriously because you're practically the same age.

Intern was left in office alone with you. Thinks its okay to watch television shows because you're "young and cool." Intern regrets mistake.

Your cell phone is assumed to be a free for all number. When office phone is silenced, business calls roll in on the mom-calls-only-line.

Never allowed to doubt the contract economist because they have a PhD and you're a whipper snapper.
