If there’s one segment of society that old people hate it’s teenagers. It’s almost like they purposely enjoy taunting the elderly with their youthful vitality. It’s like… “Hey look at me, I’m young and exuberant. I can eat an apple without worrying about my false teeth falling out.” Damn those menacing teenagers…damn them all to hell!!

I ask you…Is there anything sweeter than watching a little old lady in the meat department shopping for a Sunday roast? Pinching, squeezing, tweaking until, Alas!… she finds the perfect cut. I don’t know about you but just the thought of it warms my heart. It just doesn’t get any more Norman Rockwell than that….(sigh)

To all you young people thinking of a career in Geriatrics. Think hard on it. Think very very hard. Working with the elderly is a lot more challenging than most people realize. It takes a special kind of person to be able to wipe the arse of a 90 year old man. So before you sign on for duty in a nursing home, be sure to consider the above.
