there are 4 sales managers at one of the dillards stores who are over 56 yrs. old and they are always telling our store manager to get rid of the deadwood and hire some young and trendy managers. we do our job and are always complemented about it when we have visits from corporate. we have never been written up for anything, they just are always telling our store manager to get rid of us. can we file an age discrimination lawsuit on this.

Ranae, I am not a legal professional -but stores should have policies and mechanisms to address this behavior and readily available to employees. I would start there.
