He was minutes from retirement. But first, he blasted his bosses in a company-wide email.

After 35 years on the job, Michael Stuban was minutes away from retiring from the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission.

Only one thing stood in his way: emailing his exit questionnaire to the Human Resources Department.

Stuban had already decided to use the questionnaire to get a few things off his chest, penning a brutally frank assessment of his colleagues and bosses and how they functioned inside the state-run agency.

I doubt the courts will let this stand. Six months from retirement, yes. Six minutes, no.

However, with SS and Medicare soon to be drastically reduced or eliminated, I don't think I'll ever have enough finances to retire.

I did have a coworker that just left one day, after some stupid meeting, she handed in her ID and was out the door, which I thought was pretty funny.

Peace
