At 59 though I don't know that they even consider me.

Maybe I'll just retire early and volunteer with the VA. The house is paid for and I have 0 debt, we can survive on mine and my wifes military retirement, she also still works for SSA. So I just don't know 100% what to do right now, I don't want my emotions make me come to a decision. I have to wait till I'm not pissed off and decide.


Edit: They also just gave me a 12% pay raise.
Bolded and underlined is good advice.

Life is too short to work at a job you hate for a company and boss you hate. Nobody - ever - on their deathbed has uttered the words "I should have worked longer."
