If that's real and in the US that's age discrimination and you can sue, and easily win, even if they say it's not your age, but the date of your birthday it still would fall under discrimination based on age.
Age is only a protected class if you are 40 or older.
Well that's dumb.
I honestly can't tell if you're serious or not.
edit: I'm not from the US and this seems like a very silly legislation. Unless I'm getting whoooshed.
It’s silly but it addresses a real problem. You don’t see job ads stating no women, Blacks, Mexicans, people with disabilities, etc. (This was very much a thing in the not too distant past, just look at job ads in the USA from the 60s)
Age was added later because employers prefer hiring younger people as they can often pay them significantly less and get more work out of them because of their inexperience.
There are examples of employers firing all of their older workers to save money (though many of these companies turned out as terrible for the long term health of the company).
Older people tend to vote more and the state doesn’t want to pay unemployment to people so hence the law was amended.
This is just another example of age and deviousness triumphing over youth and enthusiasm.
You can't teach an old dog new tricks because it is illegal
