sautrey May be they thought you were pretty versed in your Investment information and the other teachers needed to learn at least the basics. There may be a more advanced class in your future. Or, maybe a new positon or given more responsibility. Good luck.

How old U R ?

lenkajyoti @lenkajyoti (249) • India 4 Jun 08

Is there an age after which employers don't want full-time workers? Even as companies know older people are more experienced,they are still considered in a less-than-flattering light.Why so ?

sautrey There are mistakes that we can control, then there are life happenings. Since my son passed at 21, I punish not only myself for doing/not doing the right things in his life. My younger children feel the pressure because I have become so over protective, they...

lordwarwizard @lordwarwizard (35747) • Singapore 2 Jun 08
