It's why at 67 I've been asked to stay "as long as I want to" at a large corporation.

I see the kids come in with that "attitude" like they're God's gift to employers.

A few have a great work ethic, but not many. Companies would have to be out of their minds to let workers my age go.

I'm your age and after retiring from the military and having my own company, I had a retirement job to keep busy until my wife retires. She did and I quit and the large corporation I worked for then keeps asking me to come back and work, with tons of perks.

Were moving shortly to our retirement property instead, but the offer is still stands.

I’ve had more job offers since I retired than I got when I was working
