Meredith: Are you going to Stanley’s retirement 1 party?



Oscar: Sure, I want a glimpse 2 of the future. I can’t wait to retire.



Meredith: It’ll be a long time before you get the golden handshake. Me? I may be ready for early retirement.



Oscar: Are you seriously thinking about taking the early retirement package the company is offering?



Meredith: I’m thinking about it. My health isn’t getting any better, and I don’t want to spend the rest of my days in this office.



Oscar: But can you afford it?



Meredith: The early retirement package is pretty generous, and I’ve saved up a nice little nest egg over the years.



Oscar: Then what are you waiting for? If I were in your shoes, I wouldn’t hem 3 and haw about it. I’d make the decision to retire now – today!



Meredith: Why are you getting all worked up? Are you after my job?



Oscar: No way! I just can’t stand to see someone who can retire stay at this job. I’d trade places with you in a minute.



Meredith: I doubt that – not if it meant being a card-carrying member of AARP. You’re too young to be thinking about retirement.



Oscar: I didn’t say I was ready for retirement. I’m just thinking about it – all the time!
