I’ve noticed that more and more seniors are entering the labor force after retirement and it doesn’t have to do with keeping busy. One of my local grocery stores had a woman who would work a few days a week but she quit during Covid. Ran into her on another occasion. She said she quit because she was just doing it to keep busy and she wasn’t going to work if she didn’t have to. I don’t see that anymore. If I make a comment about “keeping busy” to anyone who says they’re retired they admit they can’t keep up with insurance or property tax increases without working. We’re going to see more and more of this as social security dwindles and prices continue to increase.

If you’re not producing profit for your masters from cradle to grave, that’s profit someone else could be making them. Have you said “thank you” once?
