[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 150682, member: 6408"] "If government business usually takes place during business hours"?...Do you know this for a fact? Or is this more speculation. In the metro area that I live in, council business is conducted at night, so the public can attend. A conflict of interest? Not in my opinion! It's a person committed to civic duty. "We, on the other hand, have been told we can't retire and receive a full pension until age 65." Where does it say THAT in the Teamster policy book, rulebook, contract, or anything else you can dig up? In the pension area that I am in, I can retire any time I have the required number of years of contributory service in, it has nothing to do with my age! I can't retire with full SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS UNTIL I am 66! Is this what you are trying to get across to the uninformed? "Can't take another job"? You mean NO JOB WHATSOEVER? I can't sweep floors at the local hospital? I can't wait tables? I can't cook at the local Micky D's? Where does it say that? Our local has approved all kinds of work after retirement, even going so far as to approve some driving jobs (OK, now jumb on THIS one!). You talk about confusing us...I think YOU have done a pretty good job. Yes, YOU have led by example! [/QUOTE]
