    Do you judge people by their age?

    If you do, then don't. People much younger than you can know just as much. It happened to me once. <edited by moderator to remove a lie about akaQA>

    Sounds good to me! I had a big test for my new career as a real estate agent this morning. It was open book/notes, but still took 3 1/2 hours for just 100 questions. Can't imagine breezing through 150 q's for the state exam with no book or notes!

    Good luck with it Phyl.How many shots do you get at it?
    Bob/PKB

    Two more one-day classes to take in January, then test in February. Some take it 3-4 times; my plan is to pass the first time. If I can complete one contract per month, I'll feel like I'm successful. Not being very outgoing will make it hard for me to get listings, probably, but I'll be the best friend for a serious buyer!

    you got that right Tommyh,they say age is not a barrier,,they don't ask my age before a job interview,thenat the interview they find out i am 62,,then i find myself closing the door behind myself,,,,yeah,age don't matter??????????
    Tommyh

    @Terry.At least I am lucky enough not to be looking for a job anymore.I would hate to be in that position.Good luck with it & Merry Xmas mate.Tom.

    How old are you? We generaly do not judge on age but treat people accordingly......

    Bob/PKB

    ELEVEN. Apparently we are the site of eviction. I'm betting there was a valid reason for it.

    Why would I?  I am old... 

    It's possible you were evicted from the site because of your age....I don't know the requirements of the site, so can't pass judgment. 


    As far as your question goes, there are some pre-conceived notions I have about people based on what their appearance suggests their ages to be.  More often than not, though, I'll base my opinion on their actions.  


    I'll bet there are some things you know more about than I, but I kind of think I probably know a little more about a lot more stuff than you, just from being around 50 years longer and probably having more life experiences and educational opportunities.  


    And I'll also bet that you'll learn much more than I'll ever know (a line from one of my favorite songs: What a Wonderful World). 

    You were not kicked off this site for that reason. I will not go into it here on the forum for all to read. You are now being given yet another chance. Do not mess up or the next time your IP adress will be blocked and you will not be able to even see this forum. 

    When it comes to physics, if you know anything about it at all then you know more about it than me. But life you certainly do not know more about, so don't think you know it all, you have a lot to learn. 

    because of your age and because of mine,, you have to earn my respect,,and i have earnt the right to your respect,,and i am open to discuss your opinion,,i wish you a long growing up period..chow

    I always thought it was good that there is a wide  range of ages here, and many different nationalities......b/c we learn a lot from eachother . In my private life, I have friends of all ages.
