keeping active in retirement
Published 1 year, 2 months ago in My life.What do retired people do all day ? Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.
Well, for example, the other day I went into town and went into a shop. I was only in there for about 5 minutes. When I came out there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. I went up to him and said, “Aw, c’mon man, how about giving a senior citizen a break ?” He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. I swore and called him a fascist pig. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires. So I called him a dickhead. He finished writing the second ticket and stuck it on the windscreen with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket for a chip in the glass. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more I abused him the more tickets he wrote.
Personally, I didn’t care. I came into town by bus. I try to have a little fun each day now I’m retired. It’s important at my age to keep the brain active.
