Old Workers

The age of retirement varies for everybody and people need to stay in the workforce because they need the money. They might have nobody to turn to and they are poor, so they must continue to work at an old age. It may seem they run out of uselessness at an old age and that is true for laboring jobs, but it is not true for others. I work in a gift shop at Kings Island as a part time job and one of my co-workers, Al who is 76 years old. He was one of the best on the sales floor because he was always able to strike up a conversation with anyone. Manual labor puts older men and women out of work seen in of Mice and Men “They’ll can me purty soon. Jus’ as soon as I can’t swamp out no bunkhouses they’ll put me on the county.”(John Steinbeck pg. 60) As soon as Candy can’t work anymore he will be fired and that will be the end of him. I don’t think they should be helped with their jobs because in our current society than can get a job which is capable of doing at an old age.
