Too bad you accidentally typed age: 230.

If you have evidence then there is clear scope for your case.

Applied for a gig as contract manager. Something I have never done before and to be fair I am not qualified to do it. Sent the CV in and the pimp was nice and said I was what they were looking for. Client would like to see me for interview and gave me a date.

They brought up there was no DOB on my CV so I e-mailed it over stating that it was not on the CV for "presentational" purposes.

Wait a day and get a mail back stating that the client doesnt think I am "suitable" for the position and its beenn filled by someone else.

Yay....where do I sue
