“I’m unemployable now as a result of getting to the top of the tree”

This shows a lack of understanding of the market and poor self-awareness for someone who claims to be at the top of the tree.

The average company is looking to employ someone who will do the same job cheaper.

In order to earn more, it's necessary to identify employers who are willing to pay a premium for convenience or for an unusually skilled or experienced worker, and be aware of those before getting laid off.

This man seems particularly aggrieved that he lost a role to a "young woman with five years experience". A white man should not and does not automatically trump a woman - if he costs more (which he doesn't actually know for sure) then that's his problem.
