Commonly they try to ship workers off to the rest home as soon as possible. It’s pure budget, nothing to do with work skills.

Hilarious but I doubt the article’s accuracy. I know that in the IT industry I often interview with GoogleWannabes now. God, it’s annoying. Their conceit is beyond words, they place great emphasis on solving a Rubik’s cube in 30 seconds but few of them can deliver eight hours of work per day.

That’s why we need to privatize health care. If individuals got the same tax break for their health insurance premiums that employers do and could by their insurance from any state then health insurance would be truly portable and no concern of any employer.

The incentive for “ageism” in the workplace would evaporate utterly.

The other side of the coin is I can’t wait for my company offers and early retirement package. I’ve been there 33 years and want a little change to hit the road with.
