3. This Public Employee
won't be retiring soon because I can't, but this is definitely true. I came here because I wanted a pension and a union. I got both, but they have upped the amount of time it takes to vest after I came. They were having trouble filling jobs before and they just took one of the few remaining advantages to working for the state and made it take twice as long to qualify.
