I agree it is now time to get busy focusing on something else.
I must be misunderstanding something, you are upset that a "retired" person is NOT at home collecting Social Security, but working a job that he or she has, nd this job negatively impacts yournability to work your desired hours, and reduces your income....But, you want to "keep a retiree from collecting SS (by choice)"... What am I not getting? By keeping a retiree from collecting SS, they have to work. Many, many of us do notmhave pensions, we've just aged out of a system that values youth. So keeping me from collecting SS benefits, means that I have to getnoutnthere and get a job, or keep a job that I already have. I may be completely misunderstanding this.
I'm sure youreba nice, greatnlady, and I wish you well, but couldn't you justngetnmarried and stay home and have your husband pay all the bills? But alas, life doesn't work out that way. Or, perhaps that's not the life you want? You knowmwhat? I want younto be happy and support you and your family however you want, but down get down on another human being because he or she wants to remain a happy and healthy productive member of society.
Good luck UKJ. Truly, I wish you luck in finding a job that works for you atbthis time of your life. I'm not being snarky at all. (sorry about all the typos)
