Would not be necessary if they addressed their woke culture impact, and the incompetence of their poor quality senior management.

My old place of work called me last year and wanted to hire me back as a retired annuitant because they are so short handed and nobody qualifies anymore. I didn't even consider it for a minute. Not even a little bit. 42 years of working for other people was long enough for me.

Having to sit through all the DEI classes to hear how wonderful the 13% are would be a deal killer for me.

Did my time and having too much fun to even think about ending my well deserved retirement. I wouldn’t serve under this clown administration anyway.

I got a new ID card at StratCom today. My brother set it up so I wouldn’t have to sit with the hoi polloi at “pass & ID”. It was cool seeing the inside of the place and all the humans that work there. General officers everywhere. Not something I’m used to as an enlisted guy. I think I got a little “star struck”.
Dude doing my ID was a former Navy Seal with an attitude. My brother said he was a nice guy but I didn’t feel it from him. Maybe I intimidated him? Anyway, only thing I heard there were people wanting to retire and GTFO, while the getting is good. Nobody there seemed to like Joey or politicians, in general. I can’t imagine any of them desiring a return to active duty. |

I wonder if the Navy would want me back? Let's see ...
Was an IT specialist - I am 70 now - was in from when I was 20-24 ... If I could have that same job (or similar given tech changes) with the same type of guys I worked with, and could be at Sea - that would be wonderful. I'd do it ... |

I was asked to go back to where I just retired from 2 yrs ago. The job was fine but to undo retirement and social security, not worth the aggravation

No shit, I canceled my retirement in 2020 because I knew that because of covid I could sit at home that year and the company would pay me. I had already applied for SS. So I filled out the forms, sent the $$ back and it took them almost a year to catch up. Almost had to wait into 21 to retire because of that. |

Until you hit a certain age you can take a massive SS hit.....by working a gig.
I took early SS at 62 but my old Federal client signed me up for a VERY lucrative consulting gig a few months later. It turns out that you can pay back (not sure it still is allowed) ALL of the SS you received in that first year and literally "unretire". I worked another 3-1/2 years and THEN started the SS up again. A word about consulting (which I did for 15 years); if you are already retired with an income its nothing like working for nasty boss. You aren't beholden to do whatever you're told if it violates your contract and (at least with the govt) nobody can directly order you about like an employee (that's called Personal Services and prohibited). |
