Current Events > I saw something I considered somewhat strange today. What do you think?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I was in a shop, and there was a girl who looked about 25 years old, and her name badge indicated she was the store manager. Do you think it's somewhat strange for a branch manager to be 25 years old? This was a decent sized drugstore, with probably 10 or 20 people working in it. I mean, it's not unheard of, but what do you think?

Or did she just know somebody?

I mean, these days it's next to impossible to tell a woman's age just by looking at her.

I was the manager of a Hookah Lounge in LV at 26 though, it depends entirely on the character of the person.

One of my coworkers is a manager and she just turned 18 a few months ago. She's a hard worker and I personally recommended her.

Age doesn't mean shit if you do everything well without issue.

college is a lot more accessible nowadays. Some high schools offer "middle college" programs where students can get a headstart on earning college units. If someone wants a business degree by the time they are 19 it's doable.

That's not very strange based on my experience when I was at CVS. My pharmacy manager got the job when she was 27 and our district manager when I left was apparently hired before he was 30.

Its somewhat unusual but I wouldnt say strange. There is also a decent chance that what you saw as a 25 year old is actually a 30 something.
