My Fucking career objective?

Yeah, well the main one was to do something constructive that I liked and put food on the table for my loved ones.  I had a career, a twenty two year career but the business assholianism of globalization and “free” trade is about to end all of that.  I am offered an early retirement package at the height of my skill set mainly because they can do it in China for 1/9th the cost.  People wonder why I have watched zero minutes of the Beijing Olympics and their carbon exempt smog laden air.  The seats are empty mainly because China don’t like large numbers of people getting together.  Their system BTW is THE model for OUR dystopian New World Order corporate fascist future.

I am almost destined to take the lump sum now and run or face the prospects of a non-existent pension from a company with a future potenial of Enron.

Questions, questions.  Did I piss off the Illuminati/secret government enough to warrant an extermination team based upon my political blogging activity.  Well I should think not given the small numbers of converts I might have gained by getting booted from board after board for displaying and bringing up outside of the box thinking.

Taking the lump sum this year only means the IRS gets pantloads of bribe money to assure the future non-regulation of corporate Satanicness which by a normal person’s moral standards ought to be illegal.  Things like hey HR, is my position going to be eliminated if the numbers are not attained through the voluntary retirement package.  Policy says that the company would tell you if that was the case, rumor says you must specifically ask HR.  Taking “the package” also means one cannot use their formidable skill set to work for “the competition”.  These people are Riffing me yet even after departure they still own me?  F YOU, another in the ought to be illegal category.

My wife, bless her optomistic people loving soul says I am now free to work anyplace I choose.  Yes maybe so but most likely not as the same salary, benefits vacation time flexible hours and formerly dynamic enviornment I previously enjoyed.  We could sell our house…..yeah right….and move on to less expensive pastures most certainly outside of the area I grew up in, raised three children in, paid taxes, minded my own business in and provided super low cost housing for several people over the course of 18 years.

My life review leads me to the conclusion that government to my family has always been and will always be the blood sucking vampire known as Dracula and I am the VanHelsing guy.

Yes, I’m pissed, I’m incoherent and facing my own personal financial Armageddon but God has not called upon me to tack up the Apocalyptic horse.  I have to talk to the wife and find out why.

  1. might understand.  More updates as Black September approaches.

  2. I doubt seriously that there are not many of us here who have suffered the same experiences.

    First of all, however, is to go to your bank, or an investment firm — set up an individual IRA account, have the “lump sum” if you must take it, transferred DIRECTLY into your individual IRA account.  This is the way you will eliminate taxes on your lump-sum payment.  Mind you, there are penalties, pretty stiff at that, for early withdrawal from your IRA account (anytime before 59-1/2 years).  So, check that out.  You might opt to have a certain amount transferred into an IRA account and a certain amount into a savings account, but I’m not altogether sure that is possible — you would need to check with your banker.

    It’s awful — there is no such thing as security in the U.S., nowhow, noway!  (Such as is in other countries, where a person will not be devastated by the loss of a job, etc.).

    In the meantime, consider what you COULD do without currently, if need be!
