I’d work part time to have something to do. I’m 66. Problem is it’s not worth it to put up with the B.S. that one has to put up with in their working lives. Downsizing ones activities as we get older we can still help out but I’m done.

I think kids could work 12 hours per weekend starting with Fridays. Age 14. No interference with school work.

Ran into a pleasant old fellow about your age at the local Altmeyer's (our regional version of Bed, Bath & Beyond) and mentioned he didn't act like the typical employee at such a place.

"Maybe it is because I'm the manager, " he said. Got to talking and he'd just taken the job. Owned a car dealership in his previous life and mentioned he was bored with retirement and needed something to do. The money was just the icing on the cake.

My employer started paying us an extra monthly stipend if we opt out of the company insurance . . . it is just about enough to pay my wife and my medicare premium.

Between that, a decent raise and letting me work from home four days a week, I told them I'd enlist for another year.
