    Is this a new development?

    Walmart has been employing the elderly as door greeters for decades. When I worked there (oh god) 20 years ago, I’d always hang out and bullshit with them. Some were cool AF, some were batshit crazy. Either way, it was entertaining.

    Before that, I worked at a restaurant where the staff was an even split between teenage stoners and grandma-aged old ladies. Like, you couldn’t write a better odd-couple workplace comedy.

    All that is to say that for my entire working life, I’ve worked with (and continue to work with) people that should have retired already.

      HR update:

      If death of an employee is certain, ensure employee positions their body as shown in figure 1. If positioned correctly, spasms from the deceased can be capitalized on to produce additional value for the company post mortem.
