retirement gift

[quad decade guy]

I did get a watch, my job steward started my ceremony presenting it to me. I still haven't figured how to take extra links out of it.

It's strange how retirements happen from Center-to-Center. My manager wouldn't look me in the face after I told him I picked my date in October. We do decent retirement ceremonies in my Hub. The same manager didn't do a thing for a couple of drivers that retired from a nearby Center in the same Division.

Doesn't sound "decent".....well I guess to some maybe.

Overcoming Bitterness: 5 Steps For Healing The Hurt That Won't Go Away

No one wants to be bitter. It sneaks up on us. Bitterness is unforgiveness fermented. The more we hold onto past hurts the more we become drunk on

I'm sorry, is this directed at me? I directed my comments to BUG.

Do you have something against BUG?

Grievances were backlogged all year but between last month and this month they have all finally been settled and I have gotten right at $3,000 for Supe Working,8 Hour Violations and 9.5 's so these checks have been the absolute best retirement gift I could have gotten. Two weeks to go before retirement and I'm thinking I have a bit left to shake from the Grievance Tree

Who is "they"? The company?

Why were you at the breakfast?

Did/do you care....about the driver or the one "they" hated?

Did your Local do anything for these drivers? What did YOU do?

After the driver didn't show, what happened? Did "they" cancel the breakfast?

Had the hourly and upper mgt people been married while employed?

Thanks.

He didn’t do anything but make up this story.

Wait...are you calling him a liar? Serious question.

Say, did you start in 1987? Serious question.

If so, do you still work here? Serious question.

Now all you have to do is teach the wife how to run it.

I got the cooler to keep the beer cold on camping trips. $250 at Home Depot.

I'm afraid I'd end up in small pieces if she figured out how to use it

I heard she just took out some new life insurance on you.......

And make sure she does not accidentally sell it when having a garage sale!

I retired in 2017, ordered something from the catalog, come home one day and see a cardboard box in the woods next to my driveway, I go and look at it and that is were the driver left it. I have a long driveway but you can turn a P800 around near the house. I am guessing my normal driver was on vacation? Retirement priceless.
