Someone needs to define discrimination
 

"We're over another hurdle and on to the next hurdle," said Paul Emens, 59, a Southwest Airlines captain who is chairman of Airline Pilots Against Age Discrimination, a group that advocates changing the retirement age for pilots.

Am I the only one who thinks this is the most ridiculous name for a group that supports replacing one mandatory retirement age with another mandatory retirement age and then claims that forcing a pilot to retire just because they reach a predetermined age is discriminatory?

Tipsy

It was only discrimination because everybody else was saying 65. Now that everybody is on the same play book its all good.

That is until somebody comes up and says, wait a minute now, I can work until I die at Walmart, how come I can't do that at the airlines too?"

No, you're not the only one.

I'd rather have some guy tell me he has 5 ex-wives and needs to work past 60 which is why he is for the Age 65 thing than give me the "discrimination" b.s.

I agree completely.

Don't feel bad, the Navy would not allow me to fly for them because they said I was too old, and I am 30!
