Dude take your retirement and enjoy the rest of your life. Stop trying to stay at TPD, it is not all that great.

To the poster just above this one -- I hope you're not really an Officer here. If you really dont think this place is so great YOU are the one that should leave. Because if you can watch the story about John and know John and write such a nonchalant comment as that and refer to this HERO as "dude" then I assume you are a coward that hides behind a screen name. Frankly, I would take John as my backup tommorrow in whatever condition he is in before I would want you there.


If you have a problem with my assessment of you, come see me. I'm easy to find.

It clearly states in the article that he can't afford to support his family just with the pension because of the cost of health insurance. Another example of how important the PBA fight for retiree health insurance is.
