Morning gang, got to choose my winter shifts yesterday, and realized that I'm becoming too picky.



I've become quite senior, so I can choose practically any shift, route, days off I want.



I did get the days off I wanted, Fri-Sat, but settled on what appears to be a busier route, with much less breaks than others. I do get to sleep in an extra 25 minutes too!

It sounds similar to the shifts you're working now Superchecker.

Yeah, choosing Fri-Sat off really limits my options. But working Sundays adds an extra 10-15% to my take home pay, and maximizes my pension too.

That's a wise move Superchecker..



At what age can you retire?



Fifty five like iron horse jockey?

6 years for me... Not sure if I will then or not. Apparently my income would be cut in half at that point. Still got bills and commitments. Depends on our health, our bills, when the Mrs decides to retire.



Could retire and then come back and drive mini buses or work seasonally for BC ferries or MetroVancouver parks.

You have lots of options it would seem..



I want to retire when I'm fifty five.

Do we get picky about work as we age? Hell ya.

When it comes to food I'm definitely less picky, I used to be a proper fussy lil fucker when I was a kid.  Nowadays I will eat pretty much anything..

I think there are things that we do get picky about and there are things we progressively care less about.
I've learned that if someone asks you a really stupid question and you reply by telling them what time it is, they'll leave you alone
