As an older worker, it's heartening to hear such a chorus of affirmation re: our skills and glorious intelligence, etc. However, isn't the real issue what kind of a workplace and what kind of a working world we want for the future? The whole concept of burning out or utilizing people till they drop seems really old-fashioned and inefficient. I would like to be thinking about how we can utilize more people in ways that are more efficient AND cover the needs of the organization or enterprise. Why aren't we talking about changing such out-moded models?
