It may be only a small group of older employees that are getting cranky with
their co-workers, but everyone agrees that older employees, like everyone
else, are feeling more stress at work. For people over 50, that unhappiness
and tension is packed into a bulging suitcase of other overwhelming responsibilities
that can include caring for aging parents, financing the kids’ university,
trying to save for retirement and feeling the first twinges of deteriorating
health.
