Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for March 12, 2021

No longer for me! Ha!

Freedom 85, Aunty!

Way too long.

At the moment, it’ll be when you reach 65 Aunty…

For poor hungry creatures like me, it goes on forever.

Why ask why? Have you socked away enough scratch to sit back and watch your waistline spread?

Until your gentlemen clients no longer ring you up.

People ask me, “Are you still working?”

I reply, “No, I’m just doing something I like and convinced someone to pay me for it.”

Not long at all, if you’re one of those with an “entitled” mentality: “Why work? The government will give me everything I need for FREE!”

As a housewife, I never get to retire. And with the retired husband at home, the work doubles.

Until death, sweet death!

I quit at 70, but I do have three pensions to show for it

Not long enough. I miss working and have a purpose to get up for. Add to that my wife is always home, it’s a double whammy.

Till death do us part.

i figured out that i at least have 19 yrs yet to go…sigh

Be thankful you have a job. On the first day of Biden in office he killed over 7,000. So, don’t complain there are more people to be made unemployed to come.

For as long as you live, of course.

My Dad is 69, will be 70 in July, and he still works mostly part-time hours ( he has his own commercial cleaning business and has cut down a major amount of jobs he does the last couple of years) and gets half his allowed social security. I always have told him he will be 90 and still pushing around a floor scrubber and a mop.

I worked 52 years, my wife quit work after our 23 y.o. son died of a heart attack in 98. I try to help as much as she will let me. I retired 3 1/2 years ago and it’s GREAT. hang in there aunty.

I miss work. It ended when I was 34. The wheelchair was three years later.
