All here

Good afternoon. I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporaly out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience.

I am from Western and know bad English, give please true I wrote the following sentence: "More often than not, your resume is the first impression that you make on a potential employee."

With respect :-(, Spike.

Retiring....?

How Old Do You Feel....?

As the article stated: "We are almost never satisfied with our current chronological age", and than it goes on how we are cruelly trapped in an aging body. This aging study from the University of Michigan was obviously sponsored and underwritten by the Social Security Administration (Tax Collection Management and New Policy Implementation and very Important .. ect.ect. Department......).

Based on this groundbreaking scientifically proved theory as supported by medical studies of citizens refusing to die before they reach over 100 years of age in a province of some remote unreachable tribal village in the Himalayin Mountains north of Tibet, and as I understand, some were also found in North Dakota (the state close to Canada).

No doubt and in the works now (so Bush can claim authorship) we will soon see a new law approved by Congress to increase the retirement age to 93-years (and made retroactively of course). This means for those who are already collecting social security will be charged an approximate 50% (payroll) deduction out their monthly check this to repay the difference for the amounts they were not suppose to receive.

So for those of us who are anxiously awaiting their retirement date, this or next year, will have to work a few years longer for Walmart or McDonald.

Aren't you glad you aren't employed with our goverment empire agencies where they can't fire you (union rules) and have a mandatory retirement age of 55 years.

Merry Christmas.

I once cleaned out an older lady's desk at work when she retired. She was one of the owners of the company. I was a mere employee. She had a yellowed old clipping saved far back in the drawer from days gone by. It went something like this:

"Anyone with the sensitivity of even an armadillo should know that an old woman is really just little girl---cruelly trapped in an aging body."
