A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

And how is anybody going to prove it was age discrimination?

Age discrimination against young people is legal. Youths are not a protected class. The only protected class based on age is people 40 and over, not young people, unless your state has different rules or you're outside of Freedomland where actual worker protections exist.
