Skysis,

Absolutely agree in some respects, but there is such an obvious trend with DJ that they only tend to recruit crew of the young variety, it is advertised, promoted and it's in their marketing, then on top of that majority of their crew are under 36, with majority of 'older' applicants being unsuccessfull, that's just a law suit waiting to happen. Put yourself in their shoes. On the other hand though, i do think that an employer has the right to employ who they want based on what their company is about, but EEO has to come into it somewhere.

On top of DJ having to pay all court costs for all parties involved, it will be interesting to see what the compensation will be or how much it will be i should say.
