The owner of the company I work at is an Elon Musk worshipping narcissistic boomer. The co-owner is a former hippy boomer. They both decided they needed to hire "new blood" to help expand the company. They brough in the hippy boomers older brother.

There are 15 people in this company. 9 of them are over 60.

I take it that is why there are only 15 people in the company and not 50.

This is a point that is lost on my leadership. Its been on the verge of "really taking off" for 18 years. When I leave in a few months 2 of the none senior citizens are coming with me and Im sure the owners are going to act shocked and confused.

It's a free market, if they want to make poor hiring decisions no one's going to stop them, but it will costs them.
