As in welcome to the quarter century club, a quarter of your life has expired and you have entered the quarterlife crisis. This is about the time you start to realize the clock is ticking. You may have applied yourself 100% to get exactly where you are and perhaps suddenly, perhaps gradually, come to feel it is truely not where you really want to be or who you have become.

Quarterlife Crisis

People in their mid-to-late 20's (sometimes early 30's) that cannot grasp the idea they are growing up...still hang out with high school people, go to bars/clubs, miss high school and their time there, try to 're-live' their glory days of high school/college. Feel insecure regarding the future & cling to the past as much as possible.
Other characteristics:
- Have trouble finding jobs that are 'good enough' for them
- Relationship problems/lots of instability
- Financial problems/spending issues/debt -- Feeling everyone is doing better than they are
- Refusal to stop partying
- Believe the single-party lifestyle is for them even though it puts them into debt & makes them look desperate(males - behave like someone from the show 'Entourage', women like younger versions of 'Sex and the City')
- Secretly envious of those who have settled down, have families/children, careers and friendships made after high school graduation. State 'I'm still in my prime' but knowing deep down they are fading fast into the background

Quarterlife Crisis: The 29-yr old who goes to the bar with people from high school & asks 'how old do you think I am' to every person they meet - when given the answer '23', it's the highlight of their week.

Pajama casual is a term used when working from home and preparing for a video conference. All business above the waist and your pajama pants down below.

We have a Zoom meeting in a few minutes and I’ll probably go pajama casual.
