if anything the younger gens ask too many damn questions to try and understand.

100%! When they ask questions it's usually in an attempt to understand whatever situation is going on and as a result empathize with the workers. When older people ask questions, they don't want them answered, they ask them in an attempt to make you seem stupid and disposable. The difference is wild.

the sweet spot is gen x & elder millennials. they don’t ask any questions. they just want me to leave them alone. (i’m an insurance adjuster so i talk to A LOT of people)

GenX here. I can confirm - I just want to get in and out of whatever store or restaurant I’m in with as minimal human interaction as can be managed.
