Leslie Stahl turned 82 on 12/16/23. From my POV, she still comes across as remarkably sharp! I don’t see any reason for her to retire this year. What do you think?
As a manger whenever I sat down with an employee who was at retirement age it was always one of two things that kept them aroundI don't understand why anyone would work to that age, but some people have a passion for what they do and/or they define themselves by their careers.
I rarely agree with you, but I will agree with you on this point. I also had employees that were well past retirement age but work was all they knew and they put more into it than their younger counterparts. I was "retired" by my company at 62 due to Covid and I was long since burnt out on my job so I was ready to go. I took the severance package. I had already figured out what defined me outside of my career prior to this happening so I have never looked back.As a manger whenever I sat down with an employee who was at retirement age it was always one of two things that kept them around
They couldn't stand the thought of being at home with thier wives all day. Or they had no hobbies. All they knew was work.
And they got used to overtime.
Based on her ‘60 Minutes’ reports, she still comes across as very good at what she does in spite of her age. She also appears healthy. I can’t pinpoint any reason for her to retire this year unless she wants to.Is it because of her age or something else?

Trust me, she has no clue who you are either.I have no idea who this person is.
I have a clue as to who one of the two is, but not the otherTrust me, she has no clue who you are either.
So you've had no employees stay beyond retirement age because they love their jobs and where they work? Somehow I find that hardly surprising.As a manger whenever I sat down with an employee who was at retirement age it was always one of two things that kept them around

Well, I know who I am, so at least I am not clueless.I have a clue as to who one of the two is, but not the other
shrug...Leslie Stahl turned 82 on 12/16/23. From my POV, she still comes across as remarkably sharp! I don’t see any reason for her to retire this year. What do you think?
shrug...
If she likes what she's doing and is physically and mentally capable of doing it...if she brings value to her employers...is see no reason for her to retire.
If any of those things change, then I hope either she or her employers make the change in her employment.
Hahaha
A real testament to your non-political busy life these days! I think if you catch an episode of CBS ‘60 Minutes’ on a Sunday night, it would ring your bell and jar your memory. ‘60 Minutes’ came into existence in 1968. Leslie Stahl joined the staff as a co-host in 1991; she has appeared in over 1200 episodes.
