age discrimination

It depends first on how old you are and how the other worker is. Age discrimination is illegal under federal law. But like everything else on the facts of the case. If you can include more info.

You also might try contacting the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) under federal agencies or perhaps your state Civil Rights agency and see if you can discuss the case with one of the investigators.
