still crzy to me that you can legally discriminate based on age as long as the person is less than 40. what an insanely ageist law



Totally agreed. All the other protected statuses work both ways, as in, you can't discriminate against people who are pregnant/parents, but you also can't discriminate against those who are not (i.e. by expecting them to shoulder greater responsibilities, or targeting them for layoffs first).




Consider applying for YC's Spring batch! Applications are open till Feb 11.
