They do?
Fifty-five isn't too old actually, not in a non-physical occupation and not with a life span of 85.
Into the next 20 years or so, our demographically-bubble-challenged-society actually needs to figure out ways to keep these Silver Foxes in the work force rather than kicking them to the sidelines.
So, be nice to them.
In any event, the new trend we've been seeing is that people don't really retire outright these days. They become consultants and gradually fade away through time via less hours.
However, the subject codger in this case seems to need an attitude adjustment but, as others have pointed out, that could be true of anyone of any age.
