I hope they do something about part timers. Our building has a terrible turnover with kids. They better start paying them better or they will never stick around. You can make more working at fast food joint working during the daylight.

They are also teamsters who deserve a FAIR days pay for what most of the time is an unfair days work.

I'm off the street as well. I've paid plenty of dues, don't judge someone so hastily as where they spent 5-10 years of their life earning a living. There are plenty of harder jobs(physically), trust me.

Do you know any folks that you worked with that passed away within a few years of retirement??? That fear in itself is why I'm leaving the minute I can get the friend out...

We have lost two recently, both under 9 months of retiring.

One guy, no joke, I'm still not sure our old center manager didn't poison him.

That's what I'm afraid of... retiring late then croaking a year later... live your life

Seen it happen way too often, these are just off the top of my head:
Retired at 60, died of a massive heart attack one year later - great guy, taught me a lot about investing.
59 years old died of stomach cancer, one year from retirement- good dude
28 years of service died of pancreatic cancer, really good guy didn't smoke or drink

Get the hell out of this place as soon as you can because you just don't know how long you got.

You said you refueled airplanes?
While the plane was refueling, did you check the oil and clean the windshield?

Had I done so I would have collected far less poop than you have left here over the years.
