$1,800/year is WAY too low. The only drivers who should even think of accepting this paltry buyout are those who had already planned on retirement before the end of this year. $54K ($43,200 after 20% Fed) would be a nice way to begin retirement. I knew the decision would need to be made quickly but 10 days is much too quick.
Look for the Company to up the ante when they don’t get their desired response.
