Nope can't be. We don't have to wait till we are 55. I plan on retiring at 50. Maybe 49
Just out of curiosity? I retired many moons ago from the same Teamster region as you will. And I have talked to a few local younger drivers who tell me the minimum age for them is 55 for retirement now. What contract year was that changed? I assume if that is true, you are grandfathered in if FT prior to the change is this correct?
I was one of those retired at 49. So has the medical part changed? Or is it still you have to be 50 to keep health insurance or 55? I had to make sure I did my due diligence to make sure this part of my retirement was seamless. The monies were important but the health insurance was Muey Important'e!
I know nothing of Teamcare and or who gets this??? My medical comes from the UPS plan not the Teamsters. Your out of 542 so which will you get Teamcare or ????
Gotta run! I see kid's coming thru my ring doorbell and I have to yell at them to GET OFF MY LAWN!
