True. I've interviewed many people and the ones I've roundly rejected were all woke, and mostly women.
I checked this one woman's LinkedIn beforehand and cancelled the interview immediately. She was busy burning her entire employment prospects to the ground by spouting feminist nonsense about the patriarchy.
Hell fucking no.
That's just a female with no tact. She's spouting political drivel on a Job site because she's mentally ill and it backfired on her..
I busted my ass to get ahead in my career and I keep getting getting low balled/snubbed for senior lvl jobs the MOMENT they find out my age and it's bullshit.
If this was based off religion/race/sex it'd be illegal and a public outcry but since it's the young noone cares.
It was a female with a great resume but a huge amount of bitterness and entitlement combined with zero understanding of consequences.
You could learn from her. Quit being bitter and defensive. People can smell that shit a mile off.
You're missing my point.
My point isnt that I should get more $. It's that Ageism should be illegal like everything else.
I'm not entitled I'm being real.
I know multiple people with my EXACT same credentials and they're paid/treated better due to their age.
I have a good job so I'll be fine but most guys my age aren't in that position.
If I told a guy I was excited to hire him and then snubbed him once j found out his religion/race that's ILLEGAL.
You're missing the point.
Your rant is a bitter complaint about the illegal lack of equality due to your speculation about age discrimination.
On the other side of that, lots of men are pushed out of the workforce once they get past 50.
And lots of men that age are thrilled when they get to hire and mentor young guys who show an aptitude and willingness to learn.
You sound like a bitch whining about rights.
Speculation?! Old people will TELL you this if you ask them it's no secret. They want greyhair leadership.
My rant is pointing out how ageism is the only thing you can actively discriminate against without getting sued or anyone caring.
> men are pushed out of the workforce once they get past 50.
So what? They've made their $ and IME those are the people who failed to network or plan ahead properly.
I'm not being a bitch I'm just observing obvious double standards.
> Competent white guys of all ages have been getting targeted and shitcanned for years now, longer than you've been in the workforce.
Yes and i agree it's wrong. I used myself as a case study of why discrimination is wrong.
I know it's been like this for awhile but I hadn't seen anyone talking about it from an industrious young man's POV.
Im not a bitch and I AM dealing with it. But Who would be happy about making less $ for reasons outside of their control?

Competent white guys of all ages have been getting targeted and shitcanned for years now, longer than you've been in the workforce.
You may be surpised to learn that throwing a hissy fit and bitching online about it being illegal has done nothing to fix it.
Go continue to be a bitch though. The rest of us will continue to find ways to deal with it.
