Salary Survey

We aren't alone in contacting state and Federal lawmakers about this Windfall Elimination Act. They are very obtuse about it. My husband has asked some of the state reps face to face if they will get two pensions.

He was not aware of it of course when he became a teacher. It sort of came to a fury a few years ago when several down sized Boeing engineers became teachers. They were extremely surprised when they learned that if they worked long enough, 10 years, 60 years old, and earned a very small teaching retirement, their other retirements would be carved into. I don't know if there are any other professions where that happens.

We needed George's salary to get by.  Social Security alone won't cut it so we are  going to have to tighten our belts until one of us at least finds a part time position....and for the sake of his health I hope it is George.
