Come whine at the altar when you've put in four decades, then tell me your story. Five years in doesn't count for much.
As for telling the old man to get out of the way so you can have his job? It's his job. Not yours.
4 decades? 40 years here? So you’ve been a captain for both age 65 and now age 68. Woe is me. Where’s my violin…
Also, did you have to read headlines like this for your entire 40 year sentence?

Some of us just want a little career progression so we can get our 25 and punch out on this entire operation. But now a days we have an entirely new set of roadblocks with technology and management seeking to remove us altogether. So I’m sorry but I’m not sorry that the majority of us feel that another 2 years for you goes against our own retirement goals.
and my god man. After 40 years you haven’t developed a passion for anything other than clocking in at FedEx? You’ve made it 40 years at the same company, grab yourself a water cannon salute and enjoy your final decade in peace away from all this BS.
