What term retirement usually denotes to is, to stop working. People often don't like job, so to retire usually tends to be on top of the list. However, if one likes what he does, he will do something similar to pass the time even after retirement.
Now, I'll be honest, I dunno what I am driving at but I wanted to spark topic about retirement. Now, you go,
If you see that there are many people who have got jobs in government agencies but they are praying to retire sooner, that means you are seeing a group of lazy people in these government agencies. Because in my area there are still many people competing to become civil servants and hoping to be able to work in government agencies at any salary. So, in my opinion, it would be quite strange if those who still have work experience hope to retire early, even though it is not yet the time to retire.
Meanwhile, those who are still willing to work even though it is time to retire are people who are diligent and creative enough to appreciate the time and work they have. Because they are usually quite aware that there are still many people who are struggling to get jobs in any agency by continuing to take exams and administrative requirements so they can pass and be accepted into government agencies. So we can differentiate between lazy people and selfless hard workers.
