Mark Theodoridis of Houston filed a lawsuit against his former employer, Gay Buick GMC Inc., on August 17th for constant harassment and age discrimination while working for the company as fleet and credit union manager.  

Theodoridis worked for GMC from November 1999 to April 2010.  In 2005, he filed a complaint with the Texas Workforce Commission for feeling that his managers and coworkers treated him differently because he was older.  Theodoridis quit two years later after the issue was not resolved.  In 2009, Gay Buick GMC rehired Theodoridis ensuring him that things would be different.  Theodoridis claims that the discrimination did not end after he resumed his position, but rather was often not invited to luncheons and not paid more commission on internet sales like other employees.  He was later terminated from his position on April 22nd of this year.

Theodoridis is seeking unspecified damages for the embarrassment he suffered and negative effects this will have on his future employment searches.
