Retirement is the point where a person stops employment completely.A person may also semi-retire by reducing work hours.
Many people choose to retire when they are eligible for private or public pension benefits, although some are forced to retire when physical conditions no longer allow the person to work any more (by illness or accident) or as a result of legislation concerning their position. In most countries, the idea of retirement is of recent origin, being introduced during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Previously, low life expectancy and the absence of pension arrangements meant that most workers continued to work until death. Germany was the first country to introduce retirement, in 1889
<span>Nowadays most developed countries have systems to provide pensions on retirement in old age, which may be sponsored by employers and/or the state. In many poorer countries, support for the old is still mainly provided through the family. Today, retirement with a pension is considered a right of the worker in many societies, and hard ideological, social, cultural and political battles have been fought over whether this is a right. In many western countries this right is mentioned in national constitutions.</span>
Christmas is approaching, so I’ve decided to write a letter to you.
I hope it finds you well.
As for me, I’ve been a good girl all this year.
I helped my mum a lot indoing household chores.
At school I was also a diligent student.
I nevermissed the classes without a valid reason.
That’s why I think that I deserve a present for Christmas.
I know that you have to visit millions of children around the world and it’s difficult to carry all presents at once. But, if you ever pass by our town, please visit my house and bring me one special present.
I would like to receive a puppy as a present, but only if it’s not too heavy for you to carry that many presents.
Thanks for reading my letter.
I’m looking forward to this Christmas.
