[quote=Anonymous]When your manager says things like "I don't want you to leave bc this work is too much" start responding with "yes we need to train someone else on X and Y because eventually I will be retiring". This shouldn't be a shock at ALL since you are 64. But like others have said, this is definitely a situation where you should look out for yourself first, then the company. It's not your problem if they can't produce this report without you. It's the company's problem. Yes it might suck, but that's how they learn that sometimes you need redundancy. Early in my career a very important web developer for our company dropped dead over the weekend of a heart attack. Everyone was stunned. And no one knew how to do his work. There was stress about it for maybe 2 days. Then: they just figured it out. Life moved on. It was a good lesson that even the seemingly most important people are replaceable. So are you.[/quote]
