The Huffington Post reports:

While In-N-Out Burger’s famously Spartan menu has a pretty limited range of options, it’s common knowledge that savvy customers can get grilled cheese sandwiches, well-done animal style fries and root beer floats without anyone batting an eye.
What you can’t get, if you’re African American or over the age of 40, is a job. At least, that’s what’s being alleged in a class action lawsuit filed in Alameda County Superior Court earlier this week by two Oakland residents against the popular Irvine-based fast food chain.
The plaintiffs claim they were both qualified for the jobs they applied for at an East Bay In-N-Out location; however, they were not hired.
The suit seeks an alteration to the company’s hiring practices as well as both back pay and other monetary compensation to the individuals who were unfairly denied employment.
In-N-Out Burger General Counsel Arnie Wensinger has denied the allegations to the Associated Press.
