When I first came to work for the company where I'm currently employed I was in my 20's and was constantly badgered for my "bad attitude" every time I expressed an opinion about things that weren't fair or honest. I noticed some of the older guys bitched and moaned loudly about anything they wanted to and never were lectured about their "bad attitude". When I asked why that was, people would say, "That's just the way they are." Although I haven't changed my attitude one iota in almost 30 years, nobody has lectured me in about 10 years. I suspect that people are saying, "That's just the way John is" behind my back, LOL. I suppose some things do improve with age.
This is not my "second childhood". I'm not finished with the first one yet.
