Charming

 

 

I was having a conversation with a person on the phone and needed to upload a document to her while we were talking.  I had already previously uploaded several.  At the conclusion, she apologized for my having to go through that.

 

Problem?  Uploading documents?

 

“Well,” she answered, “people… (slight pause) of your generation sometimes have trouble with computers.”  She never called me old.  She didn’t use terms like elderly, senior, or geriatric; she just politely referred to “my generation.”  I thought that was sweet.
