I will keep my chin up.
Thank you.
It was late last night and just reading a few posts in here.
There are many. But I kept seeing selfish retiree. And I couldn't see further.
So I wrote really before thinkin We all know it's been in trouble it seems forever.
What I am doing is a giant leap of faith. Although we are prepared Which you have to be. It's still a leap.
What's is a person to do?
Retire?
Or stay somewhere where your really tired of being at.
I won't go into that. It's definitely not the work I do. I could do that for another 10.years. And that in itself would **** some off cause I'm still working.
But my point is stay at work where you think a paycheck is secure Which it may not be. Or take the leap. I'm leaping and will take.what comes with it.
All this comes into question
I want to go.
I want to see what kind of man I really am away from all the BS up there that changes a person over time. I know inside who I am. I want that back. I can't have that and work there. And all who work there know what I am saying.
I want to be Dad. Grampa. Husband. Sounds sappy. I remember who I was before I started at Roadway. And YRC. But 30 years of that
changes you.
I csn change that little bit back. I can feel it coming back. Already. Knowing I'm leaving. And not a tear or anything will be left behind. No one gives a ::
:: anyway but ME. I'll leave an empty locker. (it's spoken for.. No Trip. No lights in it)
I've seen people die on the dock. Back to normal the next day.
Just a number.
And I'm ok with just being a number. Just fade away. From there anyway.
But that's not being selfish. It may be selfish. But not for the money. That's a joke.
I don't care what happens to the pension. It's out of my control.. Always has been. I'm (we) are ready now.to do without. How many can say that? I can. It's the best feeling inside. That and I'm done. Go find me a piddly little job doing something I don't mind partime for pocket money. Thousands of jobs around here. Fortunately
I'm in no hurry to do that.
Early post and rambling. (last one was a late post and rambling)
I voted yes.
They've been throwing away money for 30 years that I know of. Why stop now?
Happy Sunday all!
