Tomorrow is not just a victory day for the Democratic Party but a victory day for the AARP. All of us who are over the half a century mark are familiar with this name.
One of the goals or aims of the AARP is fighting age discrimination. Almost every issue in their publications deal with the useful employment of the older generation. I sympathize with this because years ago my company made me an offer I couldn't refuse. And thus my retirement was born.
But now the world is changing. Tomorrow a 79 year old man who is not in perfect mental health will get the highest chief executive position in the world. In addition, one of the most powerful politician in Washington is an 80 year old, fairly unattractive grandmother.
So, things are looking up for us old folks. Maybe we all can get such good jobs in the future.
A pretty frequent question that comes up at job interviews is: where do you see yourself in five years?
I wonder what the gentlemen from Delaware said or would say. I could come up with a few variations but I just won't.
That grandmother from California apparently doesn't want to spend any time with her family but rather be with the "boys" in Washington. Maybe at home nobody listens to her around the dinner table. Sorry to say but this virus is to her advantage. She has to wear a mask all the time.
What has and is happening in America is tragic. Leader of the free world? Biden is president? Worked for the Noble Prize winner Obama? Kamala Harris, this dangerous woman as vice president? Trump was bit of a lunatic, certainly became one, but had more achievement than Biden will ever have. He was very good for Israel and that is imperative for us. Biden will appease the Iranians. The blacks? Jews were their defenders when they needed defenders! The majority are antisemitic. Same as in South Africa.
ReplyDeleteSad and concerning.
