If you are working with people who are old by age but young by their behavior, would you take that as a challenge or just leave them alone?

It wouldn't bother me at all. I've worked with many different types of people.

If they are older but have a youthful outlook on life I would regard that as a real positive. If they were simply immature then that would be a challenge.

That would be a tremendous challenge and a task for me to work harder. But if these older people but are infantile in their attitude about work-- and nothing productive is done, therefore, not benefiting my life there in the company-- I will resign and find a better job that I will be very happy with and be successful.

@CharMae2 Haha! Looks like your dilemma hasn't gone berserk yet that you need to resign.

@CharMae2 well..immaturity can be a problem....but personal issue is a different thing...not everyone knows how to handle it.

immaturity leads the way! working with personal issue does not help a team to success.
