Replying to a commenter I agree with you 100%

Koala says, and I'm paraphrasing, boomers refuse to give up their power and retire. And it's funny, I just said to Amy a couple of days ago, I said, you know, I still get a really, really strong urge to go back into the workforce. Just for the good parts, you know, you forget the bad parts when you've been out of it for a while. I said, but I'm not going to take the job of some 40 year old because I'm bored. Like, I'm really good at a couple of things, but not so good that there aren't hundreds of thousands of 30 and 40 year olds that could do it better than me. Why should I displace them from the workforce? Because I'm bored. It's not the only reason I didn't reenter the workforce, but it's the one that I can feel the most sanctimonious about. But I agree with you. People clinging to their jobs just because they don't know what else to do. Is a problem for those younger folks coming up trying to take some of those senior jobs. I'm not talking about the people who simply can't afford to leave the workforce. I understand that. But those of us who can afford to leave the workforce, who just stay in because we're bored and hold that position closed for the next generation. I just didn't want to do that.
