A very thought provoking episode. All workaholics and company line pullers should listen to this one.

A couple commercials included (YAY!!), very good sound quality, decent (arguably believable) story.

Wow. Great morality tale about age discrimination. In 1982 my dad was fired after 31 years and just months before full retirement. While age discrimination is now illegal, the US is still youth idealizing and getting more so. Sigh... Some things change and stay the same.

How awful! Hope your father made out ok.
My best friend's husband was told he had to retire at 70, then was laid off 6 months before his birthday, losing out in a $20,000 commission. Fortunately he has savings. They just need to get out of the astronomically priced high crime San Francisco Bay Area.
