So I advertised looking for a young enthusiastic school leaver. A woman tried to convince me I was breaking the law as I was seeking a young person and that was discrimination. It might be the case but despite her assurances I was never going to employ her even if she was only 60.

She also tried to make me see reason and understand she could mix concrete by hand as proficiently and quickly as any 25 year old male.

You’re not allowed to discriminate against pen pushers either who make their living from not having a clue.

And this is why we’re going to have 60 year old brickies manicuring their finger-nails on the scaffold.
