Christine, 66, Was Laid Off After More Than 20 Years. Then Employers Stopped Answering: "Is Ageism Alive and Silent?"

Christine Sesnon is 66 and does not want to retire. She wants a job. “I want to be a part of a team, I want to work,” the Butte County, California, woman told Action News Now reporter Bella Barbosa in an August report from Chico. In the station’s video, she adds that she can work weekends and nights. The trouble started when she was laid off from a job she had held for more than two decades. Now she is back on the job hunt. “I’ve done some looking for work online for remote jobs across the country, I’ve been ghosted on those,” Sesnon said. She was careful not to overstate it. “I’m not saying that I’ve applied to five jobs a week,” she told the station, “but I am saying that the jobs that I’ve applied for on a regular basis, I’m getting rejections from, and this is concerning.” She says she is not the only one. According to Action News Now , Sesnon has watched friends in their 60s, people with years of experience and education, struggle to get hired too. “They’re door dashing,” she said. “They can’t find jobs, it’s absurd. It’s just bizarre.” All of those

Pacific storm brings high wind, heavy rain to Redding

Redding's first winter storm of the season arrived on Friday with strong, gusty winds of up to 45 mph, bringing as much as 3 inches of heavy rain to the city — and a light coat of snow to mountain towns in the Shasta Cascade region. The Pacific storm with a stream of subtropical moisture could be powerful enough to knock out power in parts of Shasta County and make road travel hazardous, according to the National Weather Service, which issued a wind advisory in effect until 7 p.m. on Nov. 13. The storm arrived from the Gulf of Alaska and moved over the Eastern Pacific on Nov. 12, said meteorologist Idamis Shoemaker at the weather service's Sacramento branch. South wind started blowing through the Sacramento Valley toward Redding around 4 a.m. on Friday, the weather service said, bringing those strong gusts powerful enough to break delicate tree limbs, stress power lines, upturn outdoor furniture and make maneuvering difficult for drivers.

Redding pushes ahead with police chief search

Facing a multi-million dollar deficit, Redding has halted efforts to fill many municipal jobs and is considering cutting some public safety-related positions as city officials explore strategies to bolster the budget. But a search for a new police chief is continuing, said Interim City Manager Michael Webb. A few days before the job posting for Redding police chief initially closed on July 5 , city officials said nationwide recruitment had drawn "a pretty good pool of applicants so far." But a second recruitment for police chief was activated, that one closing on Sept. 27. Asked why the second recruitment was necessary, Webb responded via email that the city was not providing additional details regarding the recruitment process beyond a short, general statement sent to the Record Searchlight. "We have received strong interest in the position and have made significant progress in the recruitment process," said Webb's Nov. 11 statement, which added that he was pleased with the progress made so far. "The City will share additional information, including the announcement of our next Chief of Police, once the remaining steps in the appointment process are completed.” The recruitment process includes applicant finalists going before a panel made up of people
