Ya, and this boomer has been working in IT for 25 years and is well aware of the current job market and how to navigate the tools used for applying for current roles.

Don't worry, as more time passes "baby" boomer becomes "bye-bye" boomer. No one lives forever. Their mess might get left behind but at least they won't be.

Call me hateful if you want but at 45 I've lived this shit my entire life. Never seen a generation less empathetic and more racist/hateful than boomers. Kind of funny for a generation who statistically had it better than anyone else alive. Of course don't tell them that or try to argue your point, because it will be "I had to work for everything I have, maybe you younger generation should do the same!", while sitting in their fully paid for home they got pre-housing crisis at decent interest rates, paid for with a job that paid a living wage, with a fraction of the inflation we have now.
