4,321 days sink I left a 40 year career in banking. Mike

As of today, I have been paid to not work a total of 1528 days.
The first 257 days were paid admin leave pending an investigation.
The next 631 days I collected state retirement pay while “exiled” and going through arbitration for improper termination (decided in my favor)
After 111 days of being “reinstated”, I hit the magic 30 year mark with my employer allowing me to retire in good standing and with better retiree benefits/pension.
It has now been 640 days since retiring by my own choice. As far as I am concerned every day I didn’t work but receive payment for counts as retired.
What part of "...Shall not be infringed" don't you understand???

i have 1848 days before I HAVE to retire. I plan on retiring in 1840 days just so I don't risk going over and losing interest on my deferred retirement option plan. I'll be 56.5 years old.
i could have retired 1075 days ago. But I entered the drop thing.
1,716 days since officially retiring. 1,844 days since I turned in all my gear and went on leave to burn some time. Still sold a chunk of vacation when that ended. Also had a lot of sick leave which, while I don't get paid directly for it, it does add to the time for calculating retirement.
I was fortunate to be able to be to help my father during his last year or two of life without having to juggle work responsibilities. Dad passed a little over 2 years ago at 105 years of age.
