Would you delay ER on a rumor that a golden handshake was going to be offered even if you didn't know exactly what the package would be or when it would be offered?
The rumors where DH works have been rampant for about a month. DH has worked for this same aerospace company his entire career and when a rumor like this has "leaked out" he said that there has always been "some truth" to it. The situation with the federal budget, debt and deficit, and debt ceiling seem to make the rumors fairly plausible, but executive management (VP level) is denying it.
I left the decision up to DH as to what he wants to do since it is his retirement. He says that he would kick himself if he retired and the company offered a golden handshake shortly thereafter even though he is more than fed up with the corporate rat race.
Would you delay a planned ER for a few months under these circumstances?
