Chewy it does seem a shame that you have found so many people like that in BA.
I am a forty-something mother and I love going out with younger people to trendy bars and nightclubs. I have found it interesting that if they are prepared to accept a more mature member of their group (ie ME!) that they really seem to enjoy my company and I am very popular with the 'young crowd'.
I also like to go out with my friends who are my own age and I don't shun traditional pubs - I like a variety of different things really.
I see where you are coming from but I just want to tell you that there are lots of mature people (ME again!) who know how to have the same sort of fun that you do. Sadly, it would appear from your posts that the ones you have come across who work for BA do not have this type of mentality.
I stand by my earlier advice to you though - be careful you are not going from the frying pan into the fire, changing jobs at this stage.
