And Trav, forgot to say I thought your science fiction book would involve time travel.older people and workLike how we can go back to 2019, before all this bs….and do things differently. I know, it’s a dream but I can dream right?older people and work

I believe ageism exists. One may not experience it but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. And it’s hard to prove, alas.

I do agree that ageism exists everywhere. I have to admit my age on my applications here in Asia. Now, it states I'm in my mid-fifties. I don't think I'm going to have a chance anymore to work here as an English teacher although I look young. So, it is true ageism exists. I don't want to admit it but being older is not fun at times.

I got an interview despite putting my age down. I am hoping for the best. I am stressed by my situation. But, I am counting my blessings that someone is giving me a chance despite my age. I must survive and go forward. Of course, I want to get this job but I still have to pass the interview. I will do my best!

I passed and got the job tentatively. Thank you so much!! They said I have to retire at 65 though. I don't know if I will last that long!! Lol, I think I've found my rainbow. I say please don't give up, persevere, and maybe you will find your rainbow too!!
