I'm not really sure how to put into words how I feel about this post. I started working at Webs at 18 and from the get-go was right in the thick of things. Nobody ever really said anything about my age.
Fast forward to now, I'm a few months shy of 21 and have received a couple of different job offers. I'm working at Meetup now and the only age-related downside is I had to promise not to open the beer fridge until I turn 21.
Granted there are downsides. I went to An Event Apart SF 09 and got denied entry to the afterparty because it was in a bar. It's understandable but frustrating.
I guess in the end I just feel like the only way your age can be a hinderance to you is if you let it. Actions speak much louder than words, and if you just do what you need to do and let your work speak for you, you'll get along just fine.
