It’s week three of our Summer Sessions and in the same week AOL dial-up finally went quiet, we’re taking a trip down memory lane… with help from Reddit’s Ask Old People thread.

Armed with gin, sunscreen, and questionable wisdom, we answer some of the internet’s best nostalgia questions — from “what’s a behaviour you no longer tolerate” to “how did we find out a song name before Shazam?” Plus, we unpack the workplace quirks, fashion crimes, and tech disasters that shaped our early careers.

🔥 What We Cover

📌 Back in our day… From office smoking rooms to fax machine rage, we share the work habits and cultural norms we’re glad to leave in the past.

📌 Career curveballs The ‘Plan B’ moments that turned out better than Plan A — and why it’s worth embracing the detours.

📌 Finding music before the internet Yes, it involved cassette tapes, patience, and sometimes a lot of guesswork.

📌 What really earns respect The small but meaningful actions that instantly win us over in colleagues and leaders.

📌 Stress that didn’t exist What younger generations worry about now that simply wasn’t on our radar growing up.
