Getting old?

Reading time: 2 mins I’m one of the older people in our office. This is a new thing for me but I’m quite enjoying it. Don’t get me wrong I’m not surrounded by graduates but it’s fair to say that I’m part of the minority both age and experience wise. And I’m loving it for the most part. However…
