Too bad about the boyfriend. I worked for some 42 or so years, including 4 in the service. Most of it in the bay area.
Age discrimination kind of ended it. I once interviewed at a company not to be named (Snapfish) and completely aced their "exam" and interview. So they hired a couple of young guys instead. One weekend, they decided to party in Tahoe while the photo servers crashed hard.
No problem! Startups don't actually DO anything, but are designed to be sold or go public as quickly as possible.
HP bought the company, and "it was all good".
And then there were the all psychopathic bosses. But that's for the upcoming novel.
