It is my favorite story for many reasons, but one of them is because it literally came from snarking on a tweet typo. Because @LegalValkyrie is awesome.
"The Tale of Descruptikn and the Product Launch Requirements Documentation" has many of my own frustrations w capitalism, work culture, & people talking down to younger people. Also it& #39;s a fairy tale.
If you share any of these I hope you read & enjoy it! http://www.castofwonders.org/2019/12/cast-of-wonders-390-the-tale-of-descruptikn-and-the-product-launch-requirements-documentation/">https://www.castofwonders.org/2019/12/c...

Just for fun, here& #39;s my favorite "getting talked down to at work" story.
I look young. When I started my first "grownup" job at IBM, I was 20. My boss, the 2nd youngest person in our group, was 40. Everyone else was older. And I looked 16 *at best*.

A year later I started leading a workgroup. We met once a week by phone conference (this was 2005, multi-person video conferences weren& #39;t a thing, yes I& #39;m old) and after a few months we were ready to present some findings to a larger team.
Let& #39;s be generous and say I looked 18.

Now, we had occasional college interns roaming around. It was not unheard of for there to be an 18 y/o roaming around.
Which made it all the more galling that someone *from the workgroup I& #39;d been leading* saw me in person for the first time right before that presentation...
