[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'd love to go back to work, but can't do it right now. I was a waitress in high school and hated it! I'd rather clean restrooms -- really! I appreciate the encouragement, but you younger women have no idea how discriminated against 50-plus women are, especially SAHMs with no recent work experience. I applied for a part-time job as a librarian at my kids' school, and was turned down because I had no shelving experience! I have an Ivy degree and a master's degree in literature, but no, I have not shelved books before! [/quote] I don't get why you can't do it right now. You are getting older, not younger, so the discrimination is going to get worse. You need to go out there and get a job.[/quote]
