Couple of years too young for Viet Nam, but they had me worried.
I keep coming up with new health issues, so ...
|
|
|
|
|
I was healthy and dropped out of school so there was no way to avoid!
|
|
|
|
|
I had two thoughts going there. I was in good health back then, the health relates to me making retirement.

I hope that it will not spoil your retirement if I envy you a bit? A bit only I promise...

I worked from age 11 to 61 so I paid my dues.

Don't get me wrong! I didn't mean otherwise! I envy you just that you are already there...

I started a little later than you, but got kicked out at 61 (with a reasonable severance package). I must say I quite enjoy doing (most) things when I want to, rather than when some damn fool tells me it's needed immediately.

An awful lot of these would apply to some government workers I know (currently employed, that is--not retired)

I never thought of it this way, but my god, you're absolutely right.

I had a government contract for 5 years (got me through the recession) and witnessed Feds in action, or should I say inaction.
