I got a new job!!!

[CTyankee]

47. You are lucky. While I was waiting out the time the last few months of last job, I had fortunately

told other members of the staff that I would be retiring in early December (I would receive and extra amount of money on SS by waiting that long). At the time the new CEO was getting rid of all the staff over the age of 60, as she considered them "dead wood." Had I not informed my co-workers of my last day of work I would have been somehow gotten rid of (I don't know what she had up her sleeve but she was determined to do it). Months after I had left I heard that the Board of Directors had fired her. I felt vindicated.
