Watch out! Your e -mail address can give your age away – and no, it is not based on which domain you use.
A perplex Reddit user has discovered her e -mail address -that simply contained her full name without letters or symbols -was a bit of a mystery for her young gene Z collega.
'[They asked] “How did you get such an e-mail address?” 'The confused user remembered in a message, after sharing her personal e-mail with her young colleague.
“And I had to explain it when Gmail came out for the first time, it was only invitation, but I got one of a friend early and my name was still available,” she explained.
“And oh my God, I'm old,” she moaned in realization.
She added that her younger colleague did not know that when Gmail was launched for the first time in 2004, you had to receive an invitation from someone to crochet an address.
“I have a common name, but this was not my first e -mail address I ever had,” she added. “Only the one I still use.”
Users shared their own experiences with electronic e -mail with their age with or gave away.

'When I had to go through CVs, the e -mail that people used was always fascinating. But yes – I am “Point of the last name” old “, wrote a user.
“Ha! I thought it was me alone. Everyone in our house – even the children – has a Gmail account with their first first and last name. One day I hope the children realize how cool that is, “in another.
Someone else replied with their age indicator: 'Hotmail with my name no special characters. The use of a hotmail period naturally makes me a geaer. Had it since 97, not changing it. '
A Reddit user admitted that it is sometimes a curse with a simple Gmail address.
“So many people accidentally sign up for things using my e -mail address, at least once a week,” they reinstalled.
Gmail, the e -mail service of Google, was only launched in 2004 as an invitation and remained until 2007.
However, e -mail names and domains are not the only difference between Gen Z and older generations at work.
The younger generation has previously jumped on the 'Silent Stop' craze to do the absolute minimum at work, while others have said that they are 'micro-retirement' and take months at the same time.

It is because employers have set the hybrid work, whereby Amazon announces that all employees have to return to Office (RTO) five days a week.
Many members of Gen Z work full -time at the office for the first time – after they started their business career during Covid.
And for some it seems to have been too much – with young people who go to extreme trouble to avoid a whole day of work, sat down in an office at the desk.
On Tiktok, people even shared tips on how they cannot work at their desk, while others have documented days in their lives and do little to no work.
A user @Imperatressa, from Budapest, advised: 'How to pretend you are working at work? Just walk quickly. '
She also told her colleague Gen Z-ers to keep control 'their watch', because it is something 'only doing busy people', and 'have many tabs open'.
