Yeah, I don't think there's any chance of anyone ever hiring me at my age. Particularly via an interview. They never work out. Every job I've ever had, I've been asked to do that job, and I've had some amazing gigs. Ive only ever applied for an handful of jobs and had a 100% failure rate with that process.
The fact is: the world is ageist. I suppose, I was when I was young, truth be told.
The only way forward is by being in the right place at the right time. Meeting that person and having a particular high level skill set that nobody else has, that they desperately need right then and there.
I dunno, it's very annoying, I can't tell you that.
