“I’d realized that since my former company wasn’t going to take care of me, I had to do for myself what I could to work towards security and retirement in my future.”
Uh, yeah, something most of us have done. I’ve never thought of my company ever taking care of me. Good grief.
I work for a Fortune 500 that actually still has a pension. Plus a good 401k.
I’m under no illusion that they hold any loyalty to me. But I’m in a mid level but very high profile position which helps.
I’m about 3 years from retirement and looking forward to it. If they dump me tomorrow I think I’ll be ok.
