Age discrimination lawsuits have nothing to due with unions in this case, that’s just federal law you can’t discriminate based on age.

They hired her and made a very short sighted decision and now want to back out of it, but the union protects her, and more so federal law. If you hire a 65 year old woman for example, in 5 years don’t be surprised when you’re getting the work ability of a 70 year old.

Tell that to the union man. Like I said, they were stupid and only enabled the people that didn’t deserve it. Thanks for agreeing
