Myself and several of my friends have experienced an age bias in the computer industry by younger techies. They didn't want to get along with the older workers.

The ones I ran into, knew it all, and had no use if someone asked a question. They viewed people who were in their 50's and 60's as outcast.

Not like the old days when older workers trained younger workers, in various skills. My friend has experienced younger workers, who don't have any social skills, and treat him like an outcast. It's their loss.

Everyone just wants to make a living with as few hassles, as possible. It's sad that older workers are being forced out, before they reach retirement in some cases.

You know what they say, "what goes around comes around".
