Overview
Age or appearance may set you apart today, but it will not negatively affect how much respect you'll be given -- so don't let anything put a damper on your positive attitude. You need to stay objective and calm. When you keep things strictly business, you'll have a better chance of being treated fairly. Share too much about why you feel the way you do, and you may provide the excuse someone's looking for. Expect a good reception and an invitation to become more involved.
