Odds n' ends
by Elaine Townshend
The 30's club
tilv that I've reached another so-called
milestone in life, I can sit back and reflect
on all I've learned...There...that didn't
take long.
Take heart all new members of the
exclusive -30s club. If we believe the song
that was popular a couple of years ago,
we're not getting older; we're getting
better.
I've decided to take the advice of a
birthday card. I'm not thinking of it as
middle age; I'm thinking of it as prime
time. (The card came from a sixteen -year-
old. Who else would dare to suggest 30
might be middle age?)
Another card came in the form of an
insurance policy which entitles me to the
right to finagle, lie, evade and kibbutz
about my age to my heart's content. (I've
been doing that for years, 1 kibbutzed
about my age so often I almost forgot the
truth.)
When I was twenty, I kidded people who
were thirty about being older than I was.,
with emphasis on the 'old.' Funny, now
that I've reached the milestone they were
at, it doesn't seem as old as when I was
looking at it from the milestone of twenty.
Understand?
Futhermore the people who are forty
now don't seem much older than me, and I
don't feel much older than the ones who
are twenty. Understand that?
One of the mysteries 9f, milestones is
that. when you get there, the mystery is
gone. Being thirty feels just the same as
being twenty-nine or thirty-one.
We attach great importance to mile-
stones of ageas we go through life. How
anxiously kids wait for the magic age of
thirteen when they enter teendom, the age
of acne, self-consciousness and pretending
we're having a swell carefree time while in
reality we're wondering if we'll survive.
When we turn twenty, we know we've
made it. Sixteen was a bonus if a driver's
licence came with it, and eighteen was the
age voting, drinking and seeing X-rated
movies became legal.
My peers and I had to wait an extra three
years for the latter. When we reached the
age of twenty-one, the legal age was
lowered to eighteen. With indignation, we
watched those eighteen, nineteen and
twenty -year-old 'children' lining up at the
polling booths.
When we filially reach the age we can do
all the things we thought we wanted to do,
we realize they're not that thrilling.
In retrospect. I've changed my ideas
about certain things not once but several
times as the years went by, and I've
learned a few things.
For example, most people over thirty are
trustworthy; people over forty arc not over
the hill; people over fifty are not senile,
and people over sixty know more than I do
because they've had i longer time to
experience life. I can learn from them. if I
just take time to listen.
I also realize I didn't know everything
when 1 was twenty-one or twenty-five.
I'm still learning and I always will be.
That's one of the exciting parts of every
milestone of -life.
We're tightening up
on people who abuse
Unemployment Insurance.
Most people getting unem-
ployment insurance play by the
rules. But some people don't seem
to know that they can't take a job
and collect benefits without telling
us they're working. Thafs why
employers are being asked to send
us the starting date and Social
Insurance Number or extracts
from computer payroll tapes for
each employee they hire or rehire.
This information is cross-
checked with the Social Insurance
Numbers of people receiving
unemployment insurance benefits.
Only cases of potential abuse
wlli ever surface. After inves-
tigation, anyone found receiving
benefits to which they are not
entitled will have to repay them.
• It may be an honest mistake.
Some people forget or don't
understand they must teli Unem-
ployment Insurance and report
their total earnings when they start
