The fucked thing about age discrimination is it only applies if you are older than 40.

Perfectly ok to say "well Bob is qualified to be manager, but isn't he a bit young?"

Reverse that and the company has a lawsuit on their hands

I mean, yeah. Boomers fucked the country but you can't judge or comment on someone based on age in a work setting.

Young people actually get preferential treatment in most cases... Youre younger, better looking, more able bodied and privileged overall.

Anyone over the age of 40 wishes they had the body of a 20 year old again.

The mental experience and wisdom is a plus, but physically young people are at an advantage.

There is a guy that runs a whole department where I work. A lot of the older guys resent him that he's younger and I've heard them openly talk about it. That would be illegal as fuck if roles were reversed.

Age discrimination is a thing, especially in the workplace. It goes both ways. Calling a customer or fellow employee a "boomer" is about as disrespectful as calling them a "millennial" or "zoomer". You shouldn't be saying these in the workplace unless you're shit-talking with work friends.

I'm personally loving how ass-blasted people are getting about "Boomer", but it's common sense not to use the term at work. Of course, in that case, it's justifiable to ban "millennial" or "zoomer" on the same age discrimination grounds.

Depends on the job

Physical advantage means shit if you're diagnosing patients for example

Again, younger people have it better than older people.

Im saying this as a man in his 20s.

Young people are seen as more attractive by most people and we know that attractive people get treated better by society in general.

I think that's very relative. Depends on the field you work. There are plenty of jobs where employers will want to hire a person with a more experienced resum (generally older folks), rather than a green youngster fresh out of college

Lol this is really upsetting boomers isn't it. Hilarious. Also the people aren't really wrong about it being a double standard. I've heard shit said about millenials and no one bats an eye (Not even millenials cause most don't actually care)

I mean there's little point to making protection for age discrimination for being too young, since you can just replace "too young" with "inexperienced" and you have a legitimate "con" for hiring/promoting.

"Out of touch" and "over 40" are not and you wouldn't get a discrimination claim for someone being physically unfit for doing a job, even if their unfitness primarily came from their age.

Ageism is and always will be rampant in the workplace. It goes against both younger and older in offices. The 30 and 40 somethings - in the middle - are generally left out of it.

Do you think 4chan is upset they didn't start "ok boomer"? It's usually their memes that get IRL attention like this.

"Ok, boomer" will stop ageism. For too long everyone has been discriminating people based on age and people have been cool with it, it's even acceptable here on this websight. Soon, however, insulting a person based on age will no longer tolerated as a whole. This is progressive.
