When your boss is half your age and you must take direction

My new boss is half my age. I've been doing this since before they finished school, and now they're telling me how to do my job. Something in me bristles every time, and I sit there not knowing how to just take the direction without feeling like I've been passed over or talked down to.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Your boss is half your age, and taking direction from them doesn't sit right with you.
