To make a claim in court under the Age Discrimination and Employment Act, which covers workers ages 40 and older, Peeler said, you first have to file a charge of discrimination with the EEOC. These charges generally have to be filed within 180 or 300 days of an incident, depending on state and local laws. Last year, the EEOC resolved roughly 13,000 age-discrimination charges filed against employers. Of those cases, only 18% were found in favor of the employee.

Apprenticeships only teach some of the skills for the work plus you are the one doing work and not really learning and are based off from what the person teaching of which I have found that each generation knows even less than the one before it.

The markets will eventually crash, and then they will rise again. Over time, though, the trend has only gone in one direction- up!
I'm hoping that Elon Musk doesn't give up on his dream, because I can't see anyone else doing what he does. There are no other "Elon Musks" out there to be had. He was this "strange but wonderful" once-in-a-generation gift from the technology gods. People like him are one-of-a-kind custom creations, never available in "stores near you".
What he really needs are like-minded minions who can be trusted to pursue the end goal, yet still think outside the box, so that they can take some of the burden off of him. He should be able to go home and enjoy his wife and kids, same as so many others do. Work is good when you enjoy both the process and the end result, yet only people have lasting value, and no man is an island. I think he needs some time to recharge, and I think making his vision a reality is more work than he could have possibly imagined. It's far too much for one man to take on.

]]>Apprenticeships are what teach real business skills to people, not college, not high school. Teachers have no significant experience with business, because in one way, shape, or form, they all work for the government. Government provides pots of money for specific purposes, whereas business demands doing a job better / cheaper / faster than the competition, in order to secure contracts.

]]>This is where the company where Montana Busch, CEO of Alternative Energy Southeast in northern Georgia.
Busch said that Alternative Energy Southeast had 25 employees but would ideally like 10 more.
"There's just an unlimited amount of work in solar," he said, adding that demand is surging because customers want installation work completed before the end of the fiscal year so they can claim tax credits.
Busch said that he'd raised starting wages to around $13 an hour for new solar installer hires with no experience, and to $16 or $17 for people with some experience in the construction industry. He said he also offered healthcare and paid holidays.
But one of the biggest obstacles was that job seekers don't realize that you don't need a college degree to work in the solar industry, Busch said.
"Solar is something that can be done right out of high school," he said. "There seems to be an impetus that you have to go to college to get a good paying job, and that's just not true."
Solar installers can undertake an apprenticeship or get on-the-job training, Busch said. But solar installers need at least a year of training and supervision before they can work completely independently, meaning companies can't immediately deploy new hires on installations by themselves, he said. This meant that fixing the industry's labor shortage was a slow process, he said.

Decades of low wages and a lack of career progression, Long shifts, unpleasant customers, inconsistent scheduling that made home life hard, poor communication, unrealistic expectations, and looming punishment for not meeting certain standards is the end-all of healthy work dynamics.
If you were lucky when you factored in extra benefits – overtime, bonuses, pensions, employee discounts, medical, disability, and life insurance – workers felt like the futures of them and their families were taken care of even with a low wage but the benefits are shrinking or disappearing.
