Hey, you're not old! Really. I'm 57. At a guess, if you're experiencing 'ageism' - this is really a proxy for an employer's suspicion that you're no longer as biddable as early-career folks who can be persuaded to work 12 hours a day. It's their loss.

Haha I definitely not think myself as old! I think antiquated will be a better term. ;)
