Wishful thinking, boy. Many employers now prefer the older job candidates who are able. :)

Uh no. It’s all about the payroll does it matter if you’re more competent for more experienced it’s all about the payroll you just get the cheapest that can barely do the job take a look at customer service and you’ll see what I mean

Not really, I’m 58 and was invited to retire. Fortunately I got a great deal and was more than happy to turn it over to the punks.

I know I do. Give me an older adult, with a decent work history, able to pass a background check, drug screen, and is politically right leaning.

How do I check their politics? Skim their social media.

“Many employers now prefer the older job candidates who are able.”

My husband saw that before he retired. The “kids” were such lazy losers the company (defense) was courting retired ex employees who had a great work ethic and better education.

Once when DH was interviewing a recent PhD graduate, the whiny kid asked him, “Do I really have to work 40 hours a week?” DH said, “If you’re LUCKY you’ll only have to work 40 hours a week.” Sheesh.
