If I had a dollar…
If I had a dollar for every employment opportunity - at my professional level - that I was not given… And it wasn’t just ageism, other types of discrimination too, I have a graduate degree, an incredible amount of varied experience in different areas to draw on, and more, and it only got worse after 50. I have never earned more than $42,000 in my life, when studies say that with a graduate degree you would earn in the $60,000 range. You cannot separate ageism from sexism, and all the other s**t, and can you believe my four letter word was actually censored? Talk about infantilising seniors and women, the government cannot control sexism, racism, and ageism, but it is controlling the reaction of those suffering under these -isms!
