Due to the current financial situation caused by the Corona Virus and slowdown in the economy, the Government has decided to implement a scheme to put workers of 50 years of age and above on early, mandatory retirement, thus creating jobs for younger folks and reducing unemployment.
This scheme will be known as RAPE (Retire Aged People Early).
Persons selected to be RAPED can apply to the Government to be considered for the SHAFT program (Special Help After Forced Termination).
Persons who have been RAPED and SHAFTED will be reviewed under the SCREW program (System Covering Retired-Early Workers).
A person may be RAPED once, SHAFTED twice and SCREWED as many times as the Government deems appropriate.
Persons who have been RAPED could get AIDS (Additional Income for Dependents & Spouse) or HERPES (Half Earnings for Retired Personnel Early Severance).
Obviously persons who have AIDS or HERPES will not be SHAFTED or SCREWED any further by the Government.
Persons who are not RAPED and are staying on will receive as much spombleprofglidnoctobuns (Special High Intensity Training) as possible. The Government has always prided themselves on the amount of spombleprofglidnoctobuns they give our citizens.
Should you feel that you do not receive enough spombleprofglidnoctobuns, please bring this to the attention of your TD, who has been trained to give you all the spombleprofglidnoctobuns you can handle.
Sincerely,
The Committee for Economic Value of Individual Lives (E.V.I.L.)
