So - I am an older woman -70 in moments - and I am entirely fed up with people of my generation.

Not only do they disregard lines, even those painted ones, they are highly offended when spoken to about where they budged into that line up and where they should actually be. They are rude and disrespectful to everyone waiting patiently.

I’ve been told I cannot sit in the senior/disabled section because I don’t match whatever their definition of ‘old’ is.

I speak out. I speak about their behaviour. I respond to judgemental comments and actions.

Elders (and everyone else, but I’m an old now) should be able to show the way. Provide some sort of leadership and behave with compassion.

My patience is sorely being tried by the number of privileged a$$hats that bus in this city.

There. I feel better now.
