[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 5922599, member: 32249"] You can walk out at a moments notice as long as you've met the requirements to retire. I've seen it happen. Friend of mine walked out mid shift, he couldn't do it anymore. He was years past qualified to retire and watched a friend of his pass away having worked right up until his death. He came to his senses and said, why am I still working? I on the other hand filed my paperwork 3 months out from the day I wanted to retire. I had met requirements almost a year earlier. In order to bail out without notice, you have to be able to go 3 months without a check because that's how long it takes them to process all of your paperwork. They will back pay those 3 months, and your retirement date will be the day you walk out, but you won't see that check until 3 months later. The bigger issue is seamless transition of healthcare coverage. Everyone's retirement healthcare is different depending on what area you're in, so you'd better check with your local administrator instead of taking anyone's word here. [/QUOTE]
