What is your retirement number?
Posted by BaconVonMeatwich@reddit | GenX | View on Reddit | 70 comments
outhere@reddit
I'll be eligible to retire in 4 years at 60. I'll get a pension worth about $1200/mo, a state retirement worth about $1100/mo and social security (at 62) worth about $750/mo. All of that is about enough to pay the mortgage and taxes.
I'm going to retire anyway. I've worked all of my life, have a college degree, and several state licenses. I guess I can get a part time job at the convenience store, or maybe sell a kidney or something, but I'm through with the grind. I'd rather die poor and free than slave away until I drop dead.

I'm just wonder what they think an assistant manager does.
If a manager works without any assistants then finally hires an assistant, what do you think their job would be?

Most of my staff is under 30. I just opened 2 assistant manager positions to help me. None of my current staff applied. They said the reason they don't want the job was they all were afraid they would have to do what I do every day for less pay than I me.

We all went into the fields at around 11 or 12 where I lived in Texas. Same as most gen-x'ers most southern states. That "child labor" stuff doesn't apply to farm labor. My work history is not uncommon in my neck of the woods. Most folks I know around my age started working full time in the early teen years. You might have had a more privileged upbringing than country folks. We're used to that too.
