In the American office lexicon, 'aging' - and its close cousin 'old' - are inconsistent modifiers. While older women are often labeled as 'tired' and 'out of touch,' aging men get to be 'distinguished' and 'seasoned.'

For me, turning 65 doesn't include walking away from my profession because of age; I love my job and the company I work for.
