Keep in mind that these requirements at likely an agreement between the MSC and their client. If this kind of age requirement is what the MSC's client wants, they'll obviously lean towards them rather than satisfying their entire shopper pool.

There are so many clients that are missing the boat when they restrict the age of shoppers. Who has discretionary income? Seniors, for the most part. I see so many more older shoppers taking the kids and grandkids shopping when I go into stores. The idea that older women are wearing a house dress and a cardigan sweater is so last century. I see women wearing very youthful outfits. I shop at Spencer's for Nightmare Before Christmas items, also for joke shower and Christmas gifts. I'm 61. If I'm too old to MS them, I guess I'm too old to spend my money there too.

It was interesting to me when I years ago did a shop at the retail store where they had models instead of salespeople, loud music and low lights. Due to senility I cannot remember the name of the store but it was one of the many ones starting with an A. (Aeropostal? perhaps) When I had to approach one of the models per the rules for the shop she needed to get a flashlight to read the label to me. She also had trouble hearing my question as it was so loud in the store. I was the youngest person shopping there the day I did my shop and I too have 2 digits in my age and am above the age for many shops. I heard they went into bankruptcy. Perhaps they should have tried harder to attract the baby boomers many of whom have the time and money to shop and help out their kids who cannot find good enough paying jobs to purchase anything there.

Abercrombie and relatives finally saw the light and brightened up their stores. They're not in bankruptcy, that's Aeropostle.
Isn't everyone over the age of 9 and under the age of 100 "still in the two digits?@Irene_L.A. wrote:
Bravo for giving your age Cindy....I'm still in the two digits....
Are you for real? We are ICs (Independent Contractors) NOT employees. Look it up if you don't know the difference. We have not been hired in the traditional sense. There is no discrimination. There is no Human Resources. There is no law.@Cupcakes29 wrote:
Age discrimination is NOT allowed by LAW and there are stiff penalties for this. How do mystery shopping companies and product demo companies get away with this? If you can do the job and report correctly or sell product, why is this not being fined? I don't have to have my chest hanging out to sell product and be a size 4. One can always be making a purchase for someone else, a daughter or granddaughter. I'd like someone in Human Resources to address this since they are often the ones to be held accountable in hiring practices. The client should not be able to age discriminate EITHER and the representing company should review this LAW with them.

Why would anyone be offended at being called a cupcake? Cupcakes are sweet with creamy frosting. Besides the sugar count and calories, there is nothing to be offended by.
Why would anyone be offended at being called a snowflake? They are unique and beautiful. Besides being cold and eventually melting, there is nothing to be offended by.
