[quote=Anonymous]How old is he?

I was laid off at 58 a high paying job and I started job hunting 50-55 hours a week the next day. Guess what after 6 months found a high paid six month consulting gig still job hunted 20 hours a week. That ended back to 50-55 hours a week and two months later landed a good full time job. Still not same as last pay so continued to job hunt 15-20 hours a week and in my 61st birthday land a job as big as job at 58. Big office, staff, c level.

They don’t come easy. I could have gave up. That was almost 2.5 years ago. I am at point I just need to make it to 64 then of let go will retire. I am planning on working to 67 as the 3 years of less pay want to make up.

Don’t really have to but jobs over 60 that pay a lot hard to get. And for good reason. Right now if you hire me good chance I either might have a medical problem, just retire, just don’t care, don’t have stamina.

When I was 45 when got my first big job they knew I was good 10-15 years.

Now I am like a great running car that is 15 years old with 150,000 miles sure I run fine but not much life left. Sad but true.
