You know.....there is something "fishy" here.......
My next-door neighbor is a retired teacher from the KC system......she told me that in order to retire one must accumulate 75 "points".....now you receive a "point" for every year of your age, and one for every year of seniority that you accumulate.......
If you retire at 75 "points" regardless of your age, the school system pays for your health insurance until you reach 65, and are eligible for Medicare.......retirees must pay a small contribution to the premium (about $100/month), but they GET health coverage.......
Somebody's lying.......
Figure this: the
Die alte Sau is 57 years old by her own admission, and quite possibly graduated with a teaching degree at the age of 22 years, 35 years ago.
57 + 35 = 92 points, well over the minimum of 75 points.
Of course, she may not have started with the Kansas City, Missouri, school system right away, and probably she took some time off to raise some kids, which subtracts from that 92.
75 - 57 = 18 points the
Die alte Sau would have to accumulate, if such is the case.
I'm sure the
Die alte Sau isn't a newbie teacher.
