[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is there so much ageism in corporate America and yet the President will be 80 years old in a few weeks. How is it that someone in their 40s, 50s, or 60s is too old for a job but the most important job in the country is done by someone in their 80s? [/quote] Good question. And if it’s solely salary then why don’t we hear more older workers being offered part time work or scaled down salaries? I’ve worked in corporate America for 20+ years and the few times I’ve heard this happen have been for male employees. And don’t tell me I don’t understand all the issues blah blah. I worked in HR for awhile [/quote]
