ED - THANK YOU YET AGAIN!

I COPIED AND PASTED, AND SENT OUT TO ALL MY 'PEEPS'!

Way back when I was 20, and returned from Active Duty in the Army Reserves to Social Security Administration in Woodlawn, MD - I still had a job, BUT - a guy who was no way qualified had been promoted, and now he was my BOSS!

Although I surpassed him previously, in all tests taken for Supervisor - Straight A’s - was told I was “too young!” He was the SAME AGE!

That was 1961 - 47 years ago!

What a Country! Tom.

I wonder what will happen if a lot of someones say I am not a sucker and stay put, where they are going to put 600.000 sayin nay, in jail? which one?
Disgust is a very lame word to describe what I feel.

This is a marvelous article. These injustices need to be brought to the attention of the public.

I'm glad she fought and won. The VA should know better.
