>>So to get to the point I applied for a Splicing Supervisor job at a Company they where going to take me I had great refrences from MSO's and form past Managers all gave me a good refrence. My qualifications matched, well the comapny comes back to me and say's my Age is holding me back because there splicers are much older than me. I took this as Discrimination. It would be different if I didnt have the experience to do the job but I do. This company that I am talking about still havent hired anyone for the position.
