This is my eighteenth year of being a school social worker. I kind of started late in schools. I never thought that was a big deal… Until I realized how old I potentially would be when I would retire. It’s all kind of confusing, like how may years do I have to work and to what age…. There are so many questions and I don’t know how any of this works.
So, when is it time to call TRS and try to figure this out? I know I have a long way to still… but honestly, I just need a light at the end of this tunnel! I am not going to lie…I called about three years ago. I even set a reminder to call in the year 2032. Periodically, I look to see that date again. This week looked at that date… it just seemed to far away. So, I called again. I payed better attention this time and I took better notes. I got better news than I anticipated…. Let’s just say the light is getting brighter. 😊

At least there is light. I need to call and get affirmation. However, I am in it for 10 to 12 years.....hopefully closer to 10!
