But one day I was tuning a piano and the client's 16-year-old son sat down to watch. We started to talk. During the conversation he told me that I was "over the hill."

I am 24 and I am constantly told that "you are the youngest piano technician I have ever met..." This usaully makes me wonder just how many piano technicians they have really met to hold such expectations. I think it works against me to a certain degree. I get the sense sometimes that when I make recomendations, I am not taken as seriously because of my perceieved lack of experience. Oh well, maybe I should gain 20 pounds and grow a beard...
