If he was really so skilled, why did he not find another position at Disney or elsewhere? Agism is a real thing. Maybe he couldn't.

- hwstar 11y agoThis is exactly what happened in my situation. I'm 54. I was laid off in November 2015 after 25+ years of service at on company. Even though I send out several responses to job posts, I get no responses. Fortunately, I'm financially independent due to saving and investing religiously. Lesson for all you younger professionals: Save and become financially independent. You will never know exactly when they come for you during a round of layoffs. If you are older than 40, watch out. You are likely on their list.
