I have my 13 year work anniversary in 3 days. I expect I'll be having my annual review before they hand me my Friday paycheck. I've had alot of health issues (3 surgeries) since my last post. As much as I wanted to retire before the end of 2022, my PD port stopped working on Christmas and for the next 3 weeks I was trying to get it fixed but I was hampered by a change in employer-sponsored insurance that happened on Dec 1. Short story: they took out the PD port & put in a temporary HD port. There are still lots of advantages to employer insurance vs Medicare, however I had a rude awakening when I got my prescriptions this month. My co-pay was over $500 !! So maybe it's time for Medicare to take over with a Medicare supplement. I have to quit employer insurance for Medicare to start paying anything.
So this week will be my next opportunity to quit and it'll be that much easier if GM does a review without kid gloves. We had an argument last week. Big Boss is making it so hard, though. In his attempt to show (company) support, he quietly has been paying my full salary since I ran out of paid time off. After Mrs HR Boss told me, I told her I'm in a good place so I won't be living in a van down by the river. The other thing is, without a hard schedule I'm afraid I'm going to sleep my days away as I currently do my weekends. I'm also going to miss the socialization. I'm going to have to find a weekly meeting group or something.
edit: No annual review. I forgot paychecks are now direct deposit. Big Boss & Mrs HR Boss left early. GM had visiting customers to attend to. Dammit, how am I going to quit?
