He tried to cancel his retirement, but was told he could not because the paperwork had already been processed. If he had remained an employee, he would have been covered by employer paid life insurance. I thought that was a really cold way to treat a long time employee who had been with the company for at least twenty years or more.
Doesn't say much for the company!!
