Part time work for seniors

I gave a talk to 22 participants at a training program organised by the Center for Seniors.

I encourage them to consider the following option, after their retirement from their current jobs:

* take a part time job
* close to the home, to avoid travelling cost and time
* accept the market rate
* contribute well to the employer
* the employer will value their contribution and pay them more or give them a full time job.

The participants agreed on this approach.

They find a rate of $6.50 to be adequate, and that a rate of $10 to be attractive.
