I think I had the question. In my case my last job was a brief fill in. so obviously this job, did not reflect the high exalted status I occupied during my main career
I too was one of the millions of over 50s, who in the 1990s, in particular, were made voluntarily redundant into early retirement.
As I said, all the retirement detail that causes you such distress, ElderlyPerson, will be reduced to basic facts of date, place and time and of no interest to anyone until diluted by several million other people's data. You, like the rest of us are merely statistics.
And some over 50 got several years of enhancement so got a pension as if they had worked for longer.
And those who were under 50, even by a few days, were involuntarily out with no early pension.
