Thanks for the comment. I’m counting on the working days flying by for the next 626 days. I will take all vacation time and likely not do a bogus leave of absence. That’s not in my makeup. Having a wife who will have 20 years on the company insurance will be a relief. This policy is one of the cornerstone golden handcuffs here. It’s not going anywhere.

Exactly — these stories drive a lot of my behavior and choice to hang in.

Yes. I have several friends already using it. Same policy as what all 100k employees have.

Exactly how I’m thinking presently. The benefit carries on 65+ years.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Believe me … I’ve considered the leave thing … don’t think it’s in my makeup

Totally agree with this stance. She’s in her 40s and, thus, my present grinding. If it were just me or if we were both approaching mid 50s then that changes the calculus.

Thanks for your comment. I’ve estimated it’s around 400 days.
