I ask that because I was looking at the log book page and one category was retired, so if you have 30,000 hours do they retire you?

Hahaha, that'd be mean plotting

At DVA, you ask to be marked as retired.

Oh I see, I was just wondering how that worked, so can you come out of retirement or is that it once you retire?

When I originally wrote the system, Retired was for people who left voluntarily, and Inactive was for those who were automatically deactivated by the system. I think HR uses a different set of criteria these days; you may want to ask them.

Cheers!
