Over the years I've noticed a trend among my coworkers who almost to a man said they wouldn't work a day longer than they have to once they reached their magic number or PEER (80 and out in my region). With very few exceptions most of them end up staying longer for a variety of reasons such as kids in college, can't give up the insurance, alimony, or simply can't afford it. I'm a few years off and know it will be an adjustment to my finances but the thought of getting paid to stay home seems way too strong to continue working here doing young man's work and in my case on the graveyard shift. To each his own obviously but just curious to know if and why some of you hang around.
