It was a Film room guy and a Grounds crew person, how high tech is Grass? Also both employees had very good appraisals for their work so sub standard wasn't an issue.

In 2010, Defendant Jed York, the CEO of the 49ers, was actively looking for additional revenue streams for the 49ers, including making active attempts to move the San Francisco 49ers to a new stadium in Silicon Valley, so that the 49ers could be rebranded as a team within the NFL that was “technology” driven. As part of that strategy, York hired Gideon Yu, a former executive at Facebook, YouTube, and Yahoo. Defendant York hired Mr. Yu as the 49ers’ Chief Strategy Officer, and, in April 2011, York informed the employees that Mr. Yu would be working closely with him to re-brand the 49ers as a technology “startup” within the NFL, so that they could achieve their objective of moving the 49ers to a new stadium in Silicon Valley. When Mr. Yu arrived for work at the 49ers, he openly referred to the older workers as “legacy employees,” a discriminatory term used to describe older employees in Silicon Valley.
18. As part of that technology strategy, in December 2012, Defendant York openly admitted that he wanted to hire the predominantly younger technology workers from the neighboring Silicon Valley technology companies. When asked why the 49ers wanted to hire these young technology workers, York said, “Because they made a lot of money, they did a lot of cool things before they turned 40 years old, and they don’t want to go play golf six days a week.” As a result, York and his staff engaged in an active strategy to quietly recruit younger technology workers to join the management and senior leadership ranks of the 49ers.
19. In order to make room for the younger technology workers, York engaged in a campaign to terminate the older, senior managers within the 49ers organization. For example, when York was reviewing the resumes of potential employees in late-2010, York was faced with two potentially qualified candidates for the job. When asked which of the two candidates he wanted to hire, York said, “Let’s go with the younger one.”

Jed York = douche
That is not being received all that well by older 49er fans in my neighborhood. Maybe an accompanying goal is to 86 "older" 49er fans as well.
IIRC, the grass at Levi's was very low tech this year. But yeah, green side up isn't that high tech.chris98251":w9xf66z7 said:It was a Film room guy and a Grounds crew person, how high tech is Grass? Also both employees had very good appraisals for their work so sub standard wasn't an issue.

Knowing a bit about grass, yes it is not high tech. Know your seeds, fertilizer, bugkiller, watering schedule, and pretty much you are set. Film is a tiny bit different. But if you have been there with the technology changing...you can probably pick up most of the newer things. I am 53 so know and understand some of both.
I worked on a golf course during the summer 3 times. My Super taught me a lot and his assistant did too.
I worked with email and PCanywhere for programs that we imported files from so Understand the changing situation. I also have 2 8mm projectors and film. And a digital camera that takes photo and film images. But I wanted to learn more and have asked others here for help too and provided help when I could. Upgrading technology would be of great benefit here..and that may be the issue. I also worked adapting to different radar systems in my career.
Go Hawks.

It isn't universal...its just some peeps don't like change and really object when they are let go for it...especially older people who know how much harder it is to find work as you get older.

Aren't you presuming that they didn't want to learn though? Maybe they did and were still let go simply because of ageism.
