Won't say it to your face. But it's like one of those movie/sitcom moments when they talk. You feel like getting in their face and saying, 'you do realize I am here and can hear you.'
I was referring to work in general although in my specific case it's logistics/building operations. I went to apply for a better job internally and it pretty much said "must be 40+" based on the ludicrous amount of experience required.
