Well, to be honest, I dont think much of the companys retirement package.
The major change that took place in my off-blog period was that I got fired. The boss probably got a list of employees for bonus purposes around Rosh Hashanah [Jewish New Year] time, saw my name with 80 next to it and called the manager.
We have someone working here who is 80 years old?
We do.
Get rid of him. Today!
But he
You heard me! Today.
About 20 seconds later a pink email arrived. I moped around for a couple of days, checked the Wanted ads and then hobbled over to my bank to see the manager.
You know that nest-egg Ive been building for the past 60 years?
What about it?
Ill be making regular calls on it from next month. I was fired last week.
Forget it. Youre not touching those savings. Get out there and find another job!
I have news for you, Mr. Bank Manager. The 50 year olds are having a hard time finding jobs.

I guess I forgot that I did it already. One of the benefits of old age.
