    Retired oldsters are the worst. My Father in law has been planning this big thing for his 50th wedding anniversary and only on monday did he come to the realization that having it on a thursday (today) instead of saturday would mean people needed to take a day off to attend a 9 am breakfast followed by more.

    Oh and he asked if I’d had a chance to check the tie rods on his motorhome yet, he asked last night after dark, and seemed upset that I hadn’t instantly put his whims to the top of my list of shit to do.

    I’m picking on him here but all that retired generation are like this in my experience. To call them out of touch with with the common working person is a MASSIVE understatement.
