Perhaps, given the median ages of those who work there, the client perceives that its employees treat seniors differently than the typical customer. Or that seniors are more likely to use a discount that changes something. Who knows? What you do know is that you're not the demographic they're measuring. I'm sure most of us have been disqualified from a particular shop due to other factors. Maybe you're a non-smoker and the casino only wants people who smoke. Or maybe a cruise line is measuring security's responses to [insert gender/race here]. Or you don't wear a big enough/small enough size to shop a particular retailer. Just move on to something else.@spicy1 wrote:
What could possibly be the reason for an age restriction of 65 at a coffee shop?

Just scanned my inbox and saw that I'm ineligible for many shops because I'm: not the right gender, not the right age, am not an existing customer of client, and do not speak a foreign language. None of these restrictions are discrimination. I just don't currently meet the demographic the client is looking for. It's not personal; it's business.
But, I think OP should have voluntarily excluded himself from the coffee shops because of his personal relationship with the owner. OP, did you disclose that information to the scheduler? If I were the MSC and knew about your friendship with the owner, I never would have assigned a single shop to you. Consider yourself lucky that you got 100 shops.

Perhaps it was there before and isn't now? I haven't done one in probably 3 years.
