If I needed any confirmation that age discrimination is happening, I got it today. I’ve been searching for three long years for a job, any kind of job. I’ve applied to be an apartment leasing agent multiple times and never even got an interview. I’m definitely qualified.
So I walk into my apartment complex office today and I see a new face, a very young pretty face. She didn’t even know how to take care of my request!! I can’t do anything about my age. I’m two days away from my 56th birthday and this totally sucks. How am I supposed to move on from my old life when NO ONE will take a chance on me and give me a job?
My life on an unexpected path 
That is similar to what happened after we moved after he was no longer a contractor. Now he is working in rental maintenance as Self Employment , um duh for a real estate agent. Two places that had rejected him, their loss. Oh and same age. It is crazy but sometimes you have to make your own way. Best wishes!
