Thu, 8 Jan 2009 12:39:58 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=wordpress-mu-1.2.3-2.2.1 http://workforce.com/wpmu/bizmgmt/2007/10/05/google_discrimination/#comment-227 Bev Wed, 10 Oct 2007 20:27:07 +0000 http://workforce.com/wpmu/bizmgmt/2007/10/05/google_discrimination/#comment-227 So, with this article of age discrimination I could seek to sue a company if colleagues have made comments like; "You're too old and don't know what your talking about", "Why don't you retire?", "I'm more important than you are." Not only have I put up with these comments since I have turned 50, I feel as though I haven't been given the benefit of being involved in many projects even after I advise my manager that I am starving for a challenge. I have not had any development since I started in the T & D department 9 years ago and have not had a promotion or decent salary raise within the same timeframe. I have been considered an exceptional trainer with influential soft skills empowering new hires and employees, high energy and trustworthy. Many employees, not management, give me kudos on a daily basis, but never receive acknowledgement from my superiors. I just don't get it. I'm not dead yet and have a lot to give. I want my career to take off and be given opportunities my other younger colleagues are being given, but am not. What shall I do? Sincerely, caught up in a corporate dilemma!
