The clue is in the word "Retired" - I.E. A person who is done with work and is taking life easy (or at least I would be).

So yeah, mowing a 5 square foot lawn and yapping on the forum, you got it to a tee :laughing:

Wife and I worked for the state here, usual retirement deal is 30 years of service at age 55, back in 1997 and 2002 they had early retirement deals where if your age and years of service equaled 80 (like 50 years old with 30 years in) they gave you retirement with a pension bonus. When they offered the one in '97 neither of us qualified but we began working as much OT as possible and investing a large part of our pay in the hopes they would offer another early out deal down the road, and when they did in 2002 we both qualified and because of all the saving and sacrificing we did over 5 years we could afford to leave.

BTW for my 31 years with the state I was a truck driver/delivery man/warehouseman/mover/carpenter/handyman who did heavy work much of the day and I got used to hurting so even at my age I am just used to it.

wow Bison,did'nt mean to punch your sore spot.Being RETIRED means for me not having to face down DRUNKS,CRACKHEADS,METH HEADS,COKE HEADS,and various other kinds of addictions and afflications.I do what I want now living in the country yes cutting my grass ,building fence, rehabbing my barn tending my garden and various other kinds of hard labor.And lets not forget hanging around on the computer just like YOU...russ
