In a suit fraught with irony, Methuselah has sued Dorian Gray for age discrimination. The “world’s oldest teenager, Dick Clark, 74, has been sued by his long-time friend, 76 year-old Ralph Andrews, who Clark refused to hire because he is too old.
Andrews said he was “embarrassed, humiliated and aggravated” when fellow septuagenarian refused to hire him. Clark’s letter to Andrews said, “The last development guy we hired was 27 years old. Another person who is joining our staff next week is 30. People our age are considered dinosaurs. The business is being run by “the next generation.”
It didn’t say why Clark is NOT too old. Maybe you really are never too old to rock and roll.
