Is NOBODY wrong in the post ? POST : We are going though a restructure at work and it’s all seniority based. 6 guys are getting let go because of 6 guys coming in. 

There is one gentleman who works 3rd shifts and makes 92k/year. He’s 4 years past eligible retirement age and could draw 70k/year in the form of a 40+ year pension. I mention to him that it must be nice to have a 40+ year pension to look forward to. He immediately attacked me and said he couldn’t afford to retire, that he couldn’t afford the extra 300$ month under our plan to cover healthcare along with the 22,000 decrease. 

If this guy would retire, a young guy with a wife and kids wouldn’t lose his job.

Yes I’m that young guy losing his job. I didn’t say it in a snide way, at first I was literally stating that it would be nice to accrue a 40 year pension but I could see how he could take it as a personal attack or a passive aggressive “hint” to retire.

AITA?
