[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in Florida in the winter and was sad to see many women in their late 60’s and 70’s working as waitresses.[/quote]

Boo hoo. Welcome to the vast majority of the world.  I was impressed with fit 80+ year olds working hard for in Japan.  It gives them a sense of purpose and keeps their brains sharp. They don't whine about it like lazy westerners either.[/quote]

A fit 80 year old who can work hard is not the norm in any country. How many 80 year olds do you know? There are some that can work, but I don’t think the average 80 year old can work a hard job like CNA or waitress. There is a 74 year old woman I know that is a janitor and it’s pathetic. She cannot do her job, and has physical problems because of her job. She is in a bad position and her husband has multiple chronic health issues. There was a story about an elderly man who had to return to work as a janitor at a school and the students were so upset for his situation that they raised a large amount of money to help him so he could retire.

“It was just so sad seeing an 80-year-old man having to do things an 80-year-old shouldn’t have to do,” Banner Tidwell, a student at the school, told the local TV station.“

Students at Callisburg High School in Texas have raised more than $270,000 for their 80-year-old janitor who had to return to work after his rent was raised.

The custodian, called Mr James by the students, got back to work last month due to the rise in the cost of living, KCTV5 reported.

I don’t know who is posting this nonsense here that elderly people in general should be working menial, low paying jobs, and crowing about fit Japanese people in their 80s doing so. Biden is 80 and we’ve seen him fall up stairs, fall over on his bike, fall over objects on stage, and he’s got minders that help him and physically pull him up when he’s laying on the ground. There’s some real jerks posting here. [/quote]
