as i said in a previous post (but got moved) reduce the retirement age by 5 years and that will eleviate alot! it will get rid of the old guys on big money so helps the company out and secondly helps out the younger guys on seniority with new families out and gives them a longer future within one company. i have only a few years to go but i would bow out gracefully and thank my stars for the career i have had. if people stuffed up on the way with ex wives etc, tough on them, this idea helps both companies and fellow colleagues

A good idea, especially as people are beginning to have healthy pensions due to rule changes made some years ago regarding pension transfers when changing companies.

As per my posting on the Go issue can the "fat-cat" ex BA pensioners keeping other folk out of work reconsider their morals about continuing when some poor s*d with a wife, kids and a mortgage is joining the dole queue? :rolleyes:
