The strangest thing is when you are young they want more experience and you are underpaid because of the lack of it. Then when you have 5 pages resume with all the experience in the world you suddenly are overqualified and again underpaid. It's ridicules!

Thumbs up Its A blow to your ego !

It hits you right to the core of how you are or have been all your life . Employment status leaves you I even have people and I mean close friend that are quite demeaning to me . LOL it's almost like they think that its catchy and if they ignore it . It won't happen to them . Do ya think there trying reverse phsycology. Don't know but its hard to take . All you can do is draw a line take a personal assessment regroup and go back at it so you yourself are not discouraged ya can always find a new friend one that may be constructive in your new situation even if it leave you a little red faced .

Thumbs up Blows to the Ego

After twenty five years of solid dependable work professionally I wanted to find work locally as I had travelled most of the 25 years . The employment counsellor said Do you realize your limiting yourself and then I was told that we would have to see if someone would take a chance on me . Now thats what can happen to you . Draw a line and move forward in a new direction if you must but move you must because it can be discouraging.
