I'm concerned about the example the Z's are getting right now from what's happening in the world. Hopefully, they'll change all that.<br />Rebecca Olkowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17136102257837831028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626594980028435818.post-46402257527375144792017-11-20T13:05:36.730-05:002017-11-20T13:05:36.730-05:00Thanks for keeping it in perspective.

I won't be around to see the world when your little grandchild graduates from college. I like the idea of Alpha for the new generation. A little like starting over again. :-)DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-626594980028435818.post-79871465251896013152017-11-19T19:37:16.511-05:002017-11-19T19:37:16.511-05:00Technology is changing so quickly it's hard to...Technology is changing so quickly it's hard to image what the world will be like when your grandchild is looking for work.

Things don't seem to change all that much.

One thing I can say that as adults we lived through the best of times. Jobs were a dime a dozen. We just had to worry about those poor baby boomers.
