Negative Sun Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Google manager suing for age discrimination You may or may not know the same kinda thing happened to me recently, so I know how this guy feels, and I hope Google has to cough up s***loads... Never use it anyways, I'm an AltaVista person myself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance Monance Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Well if all his claims are true that's obviously not a good thing. Doesn't stop me from using google though. Btw I used to use altavista too, but that was before the rise of google. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Dando Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 This whole age discrimination is getting silly. In my opinion, If a person can do the job, their age shouldn't matter. I remember this sort of thing happened to my father, who phoned and asked for a job interview at a place where the work was mostly physical, only to be turned away because he said he was 40. He's a pretty muscle-bound guy and you wouldn't think he was 40 just by looking at him, and odds are he would of probably worked twice as hard and done a better job than the others who worked there, most of whom were half his age.

PoiuyWired Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Well, unless a pwerson is way too young (read below working age and such and similar problem with legal ages) or is way too old (to the point where there might be problems with insurance) then age (as a number) should not matter. I know this may sound weird but I know some 60 year olds being able to do backflips easily... Wish I can do that at his age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
