Last Wednesday night was my last day of work, I am now officially retired. I can't remember how old I was, but my first "job" was delivering papers. I worked for Hardee's, carried papers again in high school (40 miles per day motor route) and then found an industry that has been very good to me. I worked for, in some capacity (keys to the building), the same company since 1980, that is almost 36 years.

Congratulations! Glad you made the jump. I'm on the fence myself. I did my 25 years officially 2 weeks ago and am not quite ready to leave just yet. Couldn't wait to get my time in, and now, not so sure if I want to leave. But I can leave if I want to. After a time, the thrill wears off and it's not as much fun or challenge as it used to be. I just didn't look forward to going to work. Now I will miss the people, they are a great bunch. It was time for me. |

Congratulations!
I'm kind of "semi" retired and probably always will be (knock on wood) Fortunate that I'm at a point I can pick and choose the jobs I want as long as the insurance is paid and what's left over for my shooting toys I have a small farm to keep me busy and many neglected hobbies I love doing (yet, here I am on arf )
Enjoy! |

Congratulations!
I was off work last week for a long holiday. No alarm clock, made bacon and eggs, worked out, relaxed and read every day. Spent some quality time with some hobbies. I thought, "I could get used to this!" then realized I have a couple decades to go.
Enjoy! |
