Reasons to Hire a Baby Boomer
1. Boomers’ eyesight may be changing, but they still know how to read a clock, so they show up and on time.
2. Boomers are unlikely to take the week off because someone broke their heart.
3. Most Boomers don’t think of ear-buds as required jewelry.
4. Boomers know how to spell customer service - better yet, how to deliver it.
5. Since they aren’t looking to climb the corporate ladder, Boomers make great mentors.
6. Boomers don’t expect to be complemented for breathing. They expect praise for a good job and correction for a bad one.
7. You’ll get points in heaven if you protect an endangered species. After all, Boomerz are the last generation of workaholics.
8. They REALLY need the job: after all, Boomers can’t move in with mom and dad (mom and dad are more likely to be moving in with them!).
9. Boomers have an attention span greater than the life of a flea.
10. Boomers don’t have their cell phones super-glued to their texting fingers.
11. Boomers may not be quite as physically agile as they were at 20, but they are really flexible – they will work different shifts, work from home, change their plans and work on contract or projects without complaining. They remember the old adage – work before pleasure.
12. Boomers are not going to leave just because they are overqualified. They are looking for balance in their lives and are perfectly willing to sacrifice whatever it takes to get it.
