There’s a Kind of Workplace Discrimination No One’s Talking About

[littlewolf]

43. I am 58 and have a job and glad to have it.

I shudder to think if I have to get a different job at this point.
and my employers know it and tells everyone every day
that if they do not like the new rules they can leave and be replaced.

they just have just told us that they are putting in a PT program
they haven't said when or what standards they are going to use
(suspect they are using the Navy PT standard.) so I will have to run
a 1.5 mile in 17 minutes. that is cuz I have 58 .. lots of folks who
are younger have lots less time.
If I get fired because I can not do the PT I maybe able to get back in
with the state .. I worked 10 years there .. I can go back to DOC or
maybe as a teachers aid.

they are also cutting our hours from 12 hours to 8 hours ... 12 hours of built
in OT per month. *sigh* well it was good while it lasted.
