Old Man Stink

Gerard Marrone shares some stories of his brief time in retail services, but mostly his first and truest love; soccer. He shares stories of his time in professional soccer, how he managed the WPS team Sky Blue FC in their first year, going on to the inaugural Women’s Professional Soccer championship in 2009. We talk about LinkedIn, some of what works, what doesn't and.. some other stuff.

I sit and talk a spell with my neighbor Gary, from down the street. He worked at the GM factory for 31 years, retired and moved into my neighborhood three years ago... I can't tell you everything; you gotta listen in his words in his voice.

Even if you believe it takes a village, you ain’t the village elder. That is something you earn, not something you take because you are older. Don't do this.

Old Man Stink interviewed VM Vaughn who wrote a story on Medium where he declares, without apology; "I’m 56 years old and learning to code."

I respond to a "fake it 'til you make it" post on Medium. My whole resume has been a "fake it 'til you make it" The reality is I will not know how to do the next job someone will offer me, but I will figure it out and I will be exceptional at it.

One old man describes what it is like to receive a job rejection letter from a young company. It is kind of a downer, but worth listening to.

Jonathan Franzen did an interview and we had about two minutes worth of thought on it. From my deck with my dog.
