[quote=Anonymous]No. Age is age. When I was young employers were fine with hiring older women since they were a good/sure bet to NOT get pregnant and to NOT take time off for babies and the responsibilities of children [taking off to doctor appts, sick kids, sports, childcare issues]. Women often dumped on the firms and the load was carried by others. Projects due, presentations etc. I was one of the others. So unfair. Some friends got partial work from home and when I was a sahm with little kids would come over, meet for lunch, shop. Lots of abuse of the benefit which still happens.[/quote]
