Re:A Question For All Cable Guys And Gal's

Seven whole yrs experience and 3 yrs in college, equals 10 yrs. You stated that you were twenty five so you must have started out in the business when you were 15. You would have to have been in high school then, since you must have graduated because you went to college. If you went for three yrs why not finish?? You only had one yr left...I think more than likely you are a hack who greatly overestimates his ability. You talk a big job but I doubt that you can produce one. Thats the reason you weren't hired, not your age. Its the fact you overestimate yourself...

>Sorry to rain on your parade---Some of these ole'LineDogs have more experience on 1 sh*t job than you could EVER learn in school....It's not discrimination--It's good sense! Pay your dues,boy! You'll get there one day...

>>>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.
