> Every day is mental pain as I get older and younger folks are above me. It feels undignified, humiliating at times.

Age is not a rank. If people younger than you are better at delivering value than you then they should be above you, and rightfully so.

Moreso if they outwork you.

You should get with the program and work on being at peace that other people around you can and often are better than you at something.

If you're hoping to become a manager so that you can abuse your position to keep others down, you definitely are not cut out to be a manager.
