I thought age discrimination was not allowed? I guess they assume a bunch of teenagers, many of whom are parents themselves, will be too broke to fight it in court.
No no, age discrimination is only disallowed if you’re old and incompetent. If you’re young you’re just a dumb inexperienced kid who isn’t worth paying a living wage to and just needs to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
Does that mean they get an automatic raise when they reach the correct age? I feel like my high school boss would just fire anyone who crosses the threshold and bring in a younger replacement.

And now they’ve made sure they will indeed be too broke to fight.

I’m sure that’s the idea
Lol, no.
Because old fucks make our laws age discrimination only applies towards those in their age group. Everyone else just gets to go fuck themselves.
Is it illegal? I worked a summer job as a 17 year old and everyone less than 18 got payed slightly less than anyone 18+. This was in Michigan.
