I asked why said they had been burned by a young pilot before. I dunno so anyway that was the end of that.
Pretty much everything this "captain" did was against the law in regards to hiring. People have been sued for alot less.
As for discrimination, I get it the other way. Once the airline stink is on you, it's almost impossible to get it off regarding corporate.
