      I’ve seen plenty of old folks working at places like this unfortunately. Social programs are really failing us

        Walmart has sought out retirees, particularly for greeter positions, for a long time.

          Retirement is overrated. My father “retired” nearly ten years ago and still keeps going back when his old employer offers him contracts. He’s financially comfortable, and every time he complains that “this is the last time I’m doing this”, then he goes back at the next opportunity.

      60 years or older*. Plenty are still working, and not everyone retires exactly at 65. Especially these days…

          In the US, it’s 65 for the Boomers, but it’s been raised to 67 for the rest of us.

          I think generally boomers generation ends in 1964/1965 20 years after the end of the war

      It’s also dated 4/20. I’m amazed they didn’t manage to sneak a 69 in there somewhere to get the full meme potential out of it.

        It would have been so easy too! “Must be born before '69 to apply”
