[QUOTE="Braveheart, post: 702493, member: 5831"] If your retirement date is later in the year you may want to take a few vacations here and there to make sure you make it to retirement. All option days must be used while employed. Unlike vacations that they have to pay out options do not. So use those 7 option days as you need them. Like 3 day weekends, retirement planning, and so forth. We had a guy who thought he was retiring one year and took all time off at once. Back up plan failed. He had to work the rest of the year with no vacation or sick time left. Bad year made worse by poor planning. You better wite to Union pension fund and UPS pension fund way in advance to make sure there are no potholes. Diversify your 401k and move stuff out of the high risk as you get close. Pay off mortgage now and cars, boat, new roof, etc etc. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
