Do you have a funded retirement Dave?

Not even funded medical coverage.

Actually *you* are funding my medical coverage.

And it's the same medical coverage that's available to you (but
probably not ScottW).

And the answer is no - I don't have a funded retirement.

Your getting up
there and I'm sure no matter how much you like soothing
those customers, you can't do it forever.

Don't know about mandatory retirement in his biz.

Nope. No "mandatory retirement". I can certainly do it as long as I'm
comfortable doing it and it's enjoyable.

Maybe you can, Arny plans to run his PC bus. forever.

Depends who you believe, Scotty. Middius and his clique, including your buds
the Sockpuppet twins seem to think I'm already living off my retirement.

Life's tough for people like Weil who seem to have never gotten very far
past the $50K per anum barrier (even by his own bragging).

I'm not the kind of person who "brags" about money, since money isn't
all that important to me.

If you consider the fact that he's paying his own benefits, knock $10K or more off of that.

Actually, I've taken less pay for better "benefits", so to speak. I
took a $5 grand hit to go from management back to tableside service.
Who knows, I might end up going back into management or ownership as
the years progress...the nice thing about my career over the years is
that I have never been locked into a single company or career. That's
no knock against those who *do* enjoy a single career though. I just
prefer a little more flexibility and a wider choice of life
experiences.
