    You're asked to show a new worker around, they ask you how long you've been doing this for & when you tell them, they go 'Wow! I wasn't even born then'.

    Been there, still got the scars on the inside.

    You know when you are getting old when you are teaching the children of children you taught.

    You know when you are getting older when:

    Your barber offers to trim your eyebrows,
    You still call your barber a barber, not your hairdresser.
    You check out the chick in the short skirt and think, nah too young.
    When you're talking to your friends, you usually end up talking about medical complaints.

    You know you are getting older when you can recall:

    Johnny O"Keefe, Digger Revel, Little Pattie, Col Joy and the Joy boys, Hank Williams, Nikita Kruschev, Pope Pius 12th, Jimmy Cagney..........

    Pounds, Shillings and Pence

    All your multiplication tables, how to write with a dip pen.

    You know you're growing old when you're tying your shoelace, wondering if there's something else you can do when you're down there.

    When you used a slide rule and logarithims in maths class.
    To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional

    Confidence, the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.

    What could possibly go wrong.

    Sigh! You definitely know you are getting older when a list like this seems to be describing you to a 'T'.

    and recently you hear your son describe the 'when he was young' to a young kid who gasps at at his description of deprivation and ancient technology.

    You are getting old when you couldnt be bothered learning yet another version of Windows and head for the DOS prompt to find out what is really going on.

    I have several (adult) students whose parents I trained!

    This is a neat party trick. Part of the calcs we do involves simple multiplication (3 digits x 3 digits), which those of us of my vintage learned to do in our heads. Last week, running a class, the trainees couldn't see how we did this (it's just practice), so to make it simple for them, I pulled out my old circular slide rule.

    I don't think they're going to give up their calculators.

    You know you're getting old when it takes you all night to do what you use to do all night.

    Anyone tried pickin up a bag of cement lately? They never used to be that heavy.

    You know you're getting old when your wife says " Let's go upstairs for some hot sex" and you have to reply " Sorry love, but I can only do one or the other".
