I think this is a very opinionated and one-sided article. Prejudices exist everywhere and ageism definitely exist. You&#x27;re most likely to complain about a particular prejudice  when: it directly affects you, you think it directly affects you, or it affects someone you know. As far as ageism I definitely understand the point of view the author has. I think the other side of the story here is in the workplace the &quot;more experienced&quot; engineers &quot;may&quot; dismiss the ideas and contributions of a younger engineer even if they are completely valid and logical. This is the kind of social prejudice I have witnessed in the workplace. There are most certainly even more prejudices that exist in the workplace regarding age. I think it&#x27;s unfortunate that the author decided to rant about an issue and not present all the facts as if a particular group of people have it easier than a different group.
