" We will get back to you" means we do not give the position to you. This is a well known term in business.

user-friendly. many human beings even if or not they are men or women persons won't be able to be honest is with the aid of lack of self assurance. they are afraid that in case you knew the actuality, you does no longer have them. Honesty is a sturdy element. too a lot honesty isn't any such strong element. i opt to grant the honesty in small doses. One would not opt to grant too a lot concepts in a clean courting too quickly. for instance, say one is searching for help with an habit or a psychological disease. One does no longer opt to volunteer that concepts proper off the bat. it really is large that they are getting the help they want. you do not opt to open the closet and drag the skeletons out. you'll be able to scare someone away in the adventure that they spill all their complications out contained in the open promptly. yet another social gathering the position you do not opt to be too honest; telling your lady that she is gaining weight. As a guy i comprehend no longer to inform a lady that her bottom is getting large. i do not care if her *** is so large that she desires to beep even as backing up or she desires to grease her aspects to get by the door. save that information to at least one self. you'll be able to apply this suggestion an same even as it applies to any area of a lady's visual charm. the subsequent lady who takes it nicely even as someone tells her that there is something incorrect such as her visual charm will be the first. I agree that it really is needed to be honest. pretty if one is popular with the actuality will eventually pop out. One would not want to be honest the position one is doubtlessly hurting someones thoughts. If each and absolutely everyone became honest to the point the position they are being blunt, then there will be extra complicated thoughts contained in the international.

Because then you could accuse them of age discrimination. As it is, you would have to make a very good case to prove that they did discriminate on grounds of age. (Although it's against the law to discriminate on grounds of age in the US and Australia and New Zealand, it is not yet illegal in the UK. I believe it becomes part of employment law in October 2006).
Obviously, the job wasn't for you. Better luck next time.

Discrimination. Avoiding having to talk to you any longer. Not wanting to hurt your feelings...Get used to it. You won't find much honesty anywhere unless you are blessed with friends and family you trust. Out there in the world?? In three words...Most people suck.

i think it would be discrimination if they told you they were looking for someone younger.

That's called AGE DISCRIMINATION, and they know that if they said that, you would have a case to take them to court.
