Employers preferred to

hire youngsters -because they were cheaper and more biddable, and we
frightened of hiring adults who had had to drop out of work - for
whatever reason - for fear that it might happen again.

Aha! So that's your excuse ?:-)

No Jim, it isn't my "excuse". I never had to "drop out of work". Dutch
employers don't like hiring people over forty, and get even less
enthusiastic over more elderly applicants. I'm good enough that I
managed to get hired in Venlo when I was 57, but when I lost that job
I was three years older, and I haven't been able to beat the odds
since then.


Do you speak Dutch?



Ther is always "Rosetts Stone", which is supposed to teach people languages fairly quickly. I'm not being snide, I'm serious. You never know where a good job might be located.



Hmm lets see,
In American:
Press 1 for english!

Is there something wrong here?

The one I like is when its telling
you to press 1 for english in spanish.
