一篇Ture Or False,
I’m contemplating applying for my fifty-first job.It’s been a long time since I wasted stamp money this way.In fact,when I reached the fiftieth without success I decided to abandon job hunting and got out my pen to scratch a living instead.
But there’s another wildly exciting job in the paper today,"salary £22,500—£26,250 according to age and experience".The good news is the pay,the bad news is that damning little phrase "according to age and experience" which means I won’t get the job.
It’s not that I have more age than experience - I’ve led an incident-packed existence.Journalist,company director,wife and mother,market researcher,and now,at thirty-something,I’m trying to use my Cambridge degree in criminology.
I’m a victim of the sliding pay-scale.Employers can obtain a fresh 22-year-old graduate to train a lot cheaper than me.Yet I’m the ideal employer:stable,good-humored,child-bearing behind me,looking for 25-plus years of steady pensionable employment.
Ageism is everywhere.It’s much more prevalent than sexism in the job market.It is lagging behind sexism,racism,and handicappism because even the oppressed seem to accept the discrimination.Yet there are many professions that would benefit from the maturity and stability the older entrant can bring.
My own pressing concern is to lessen my guilt.I am desperately grateful to the Government for financing me through my university education at a cost of over £10,000.But unless someone gives me a job,how can I pay them back in income tax?
