I work at my local postal office, more then just mail these days though.

>New guy comes in....slightly worried
>Turns out he's in training for management in a close town
>I get the job of supervising him, and training him
>Been working there for only 4 months, feel like a boss
>Majority of the time was fine, helped him through what he needed to do
>This guy is 40ish, not dumb, but the job is confusing at times
>Old lady comes up, looks at me
>"So you training to work here"
>THE HAND, IT HUNGERS!
>Lay back my granny slappin hand
>"other way round m'am"
>She's clearly shocked

What the hell is wrong with a younger person being more experienced in a much more mature job then another....damn older generations thinkin we're useless.

Did get a few compliments on helping the new chap, even if it does really look like he's training me, but I was very vocal about what he should be doing, so most of the people got the idea.
I still get comments about me being 'the new guy' though which genuinely irritate me at times, I may be slightly baby faced (Mrs Batch says its cute shut up :c ) but that doesn't mean us younger people can't take the more serious roles.

So, as a side note, relinquish your frustration of the older generations underestimating our potentials.

Not even Queensland man....I did have a Queenslander drive past me the other day, stopped at the lights next to me and told me he was going to shoot me and my Girlfriend.....I really don't like them all that much now.

I lived in QLD when I first joined the site 6 years back, a few months after that I moved to NSW and living in the same place since.
