16. I've only seen one exception
Where my wife used to work. Parts delivery drivers, low pay, work weekends, etc. They have two guys now in their late 50s who put the other two younger drivers to shame. Old timers never applied for those positions before until they started getting let go for being "top heavy" elsewhere.

They both show up on time, grab parts and go instead of BS'ing around the store, they don't drive and text their girlfriends and even show up on the weekends like they're supposed to.

Her ex boss and her are still good friends and he said the customers are happy because they're getting their parts faster so they're sending him more orders, word is getting around town so they're getting more customers, he's loving it. When my wife worked there she was on her own and all the slack from the other three drivers was always tossed on her.
