When an old works side-by-side a young

Older employee makes decisions based on experience. Younger employee uses academic learning. Blending the two provides cross-generational benefits. Reciprocal mentoring helps. Despite the age difference, one can be a colleague and also a friend. For the young, time is open-ended.  The young try to expand their horizon. For the old time is close-ended. The old try to wrap up. The young see opportunities in new relationships. The old want to deepen existing relationships. For the young time is infinite. For the old life has time limit. Time has no mind of its own. Our mind defines our time.
