I live and work in the far northern outskirts of Chicago. There is a fair amount of industry around me, but there are typically only two or three CMM job openings at a time within my commuting area. Most of them are normally the same few jobs that nobody wants or they just don’t pay enough.
However, right now it seems like there are quite a few jobs available near me that I'd be happy to take if I didn't already have a good thing going. Also, where I work we have been down a CMM programmer for many months and recently lost two more who left for greener pastures. HR tells me that no one is even applying, let alone anyone with good qualifications! We are working to build talent from within, but it's going to take some time.
How about you? Are you currently understaffed? Or should I say, more understaffed than usual? Do you see a lot more job openings near you? Am I the only one dumb enough to do this for a living? What am I missing here?
I'm honestly shooting for 55 but, its your last two years that matter for SS payments...
On average taking the early retirement is the best option as it takes years to compensate for the minor lose of monthly pay out over the 5 year difference.
I'm pretty confident ima have to work at Wal-mart as a greeter or something to make ends meet... )8
