>A few days off?! From what? Retired life? <g>

I wish! I work in a high stress area and it is not unusual to have some have a heart attack and die, such as the developer in the adjoining cubical for example, and others within 50 feet of where I work.

They like to remind us, “Each minute of down time costs $36,000”! By the way the people who have died within the last five years that I have been here have been between 45 to 55 years old and in good health.

Most heart attacks occur in the early morning and we start at 0600. When I get to work and see the ambulance I know that someone is in trouble. Then they wheel out the body. Not a pleasant way to start the day.

Retirement should be a real joy! When all is said and done social security and my pension will not pay my rent. I have a lot to look forward to.
