Forced to retire!!

Just got done meeting with HR and plant manager. After 39 years they thought it was best that I retire and give up my position to a younger boy that I have been training the last 2 months.

I accepted. But, feel violated.

There are some exceptionally gross human beings (and I use that term loosely) on here. This guy felt like he was forced to retire and did. Who are any of you to question his work ethic?

Sorry you had to go like that, Denny. I wish you the best.

If I ask someone to do something am I forcing them to do it?

Statement: “They thought it was best that I retire”

HR and Plant Manger translation: Thank you, but your services are no longer needed.

That’s the feeling left for the one’s who are staying through this sh– show! It’s like death and taxes, No ONE or no PLANT is safe going forward!

Sounds like you were asked to retire and agreed, not forced.
Regardless, enjoy your retirement and thanks for your 39 years of service.

Good luck Denny. I hope you got a good severance and pension.

This is a crazy time for everyone!
