I am also female but not in his age group. I just like the name poindexter. For 2 months he made things up to try to fire me but Other coworkers were wittnesses so he just said I wasn't fast enough to perform my duties. When he first became manager he told his boss he wanted to get rid of all of us and bring in his friends and was told he could not do that so lowley over the next several months all of us original people are gone and only his friends work there

That will always happen. Its called office politics.
Find a field that you can do and find better job security or Open your own business and become your own boss.

Sadly, this is how the world works. Most states allow firing without cause, they just cannot fire you for certain specific reasons (age, sex, race, etc).
Unless you can prove descrimination, "didn't like me" or "I wanted to hire someone else" are not good enough to go to court. However, if they refuse to give you a good reference, then you might have a case.

If you can prove what you say? You might have a case for wrongful dismissal.
But, most States have whats called "At will employment" this means that your employer can fire you at will anytime for no reason at all and you can quit at will anytime with no reason on notice.

Firstly make sure that your statement is correct, (hearsay is not evidence) ensure that other witnesses will back you in writing or verbally at an industrial tribunal. contact.. your union rep.. talk to you H&R manager and discuss your concerns. Don't make accusations against anyone. get your facts in writing and supported by witnesses.Good Luck

Move to California. It's almost impossible to fire anyone-even when they suck at their jobs.

You can't do much if you live in a fire-at-will state.
