Similar anecdote. My father worked in a supermarket before a pivot to real estate. After the 2008 crash he wasn’t able to retire on time and went back to the supermarket to stock shelves during the night shift…at 70 years old

The lack of stable health care understandably scares older people. It’s concerning to see so many seniors in jobs that have traditionally been done by high schoolers or folk in their 20s

I worked in a supermarket in my early 20s doing just that, and most of the folks I worked with were otherwise semi retired and working a few nights a week.
