Now wouldn't this be nice? Go to your boss, request your retirement and it is approved.
Unfortunately, as it stands now, there's no way my boss would give my request a thumbs-up. It's not so much a case where my skills and knowledge are indispensable to the operation. In fact, the opposite could very well be true. I need the company more than the company needs me.
No, I'm certain my request for retirement would be met with a large degree of skepticism by my superior. There probably would be very little discussion. It would be more like a monologue with remarks like, "Are you nuts?" or "What have you been drinking?" Depending on mood, it could even go so far as, "Are you out of your f*#%ing mind?
So I'll just keep working for the foreseeable future. No matter how polished my skills of persuasion, there's no way Janice is gonna let this fly.
By the way, this was stenciled on the frame of an old stock car on display at Hardin, Montana.

Retirement is never all what you think/thought it would be. If you're contneted continue as before; however just because the opprtunity presents itself, it may not be the best choice.
