[QUOTE="want to retire, post: 554657"] I can't disagree about anything you've said. Guilty as charged. However, life is vastly more complicated. You are a Homer. I'm not. I actually envy folks like you. A compliment. Retirement benefits are part of your pay package and you have to stay to receive them. Opinons are well like(insert favorite).... You could look at things in a different way. While I might be negative, I'm hopeful. Perhaps opportunities will come your way....like being able to transfer, apply for other positions, move, be promoted without selling your soul. These are things that could be. Now about money......would you do it for say half the pay? No benefits? Yes, I stay because it pays very well. I could tell you about having to stay for 32 years because part time years don't count towards retirement. If I leave now, I'll only get 25 years pay($2500) less $500 because I'm only 47 and no benefits. I just earned my A&P and will be a mechanic in my "retirement". Shame I couldn't stay with the Co. without having to quit. Negative?.....just the way it is. The Co. could be so much better in many ways. BTW are you in Management? Folks "like" you seem to get promoted. That is not an insult. [/QUOTE]
