week 1 eoc:old timer makes waves

Age is big issue when it comes to hiring and firing in the hospitality industry, because the younger generation is the preferred choice to hire and the aged are not wanted because everyone thinks they cannot cope with new things. Age discrimination is wrong and how issues are handled is also discrimination. The person being discriminated against should also handle it properly and through the correct chain of commands and pathways to show good faith as well. The management handling cases of discrimination and fowl play should go by laws and EEOC but can also use Business Necessity if a employee does not want to be trained or accept change but also keep in mind the Just Cause policy. When dealing with firing and retirement it does not matter how much time a person has given to a company unless it deals with retirement benefits or compensation.
