That a generational difference? Dude is a almost 15 years younger than me. I'd suggest maybe an age thing, but I know I didn't share with co-workers like that when I was his age. Maybe when I was in my early 20s, but not after having been in corporate America for nearly two decades. I've learned many times over what happens when co-workers who are friends get laid off because corporate America doesn't give a rat's ass about your friendships.
