Congrats! I had no notion of retiring from my engineering career – until suddenly the urge hit. I had my financial ducks lined up. I waited a few weeks to be sure it was the right decision, then told my boss that his service was no longer needed. First time it had gone in that direction.  Serious about crackers | |||

Congratulations! I retired two years ago on this very date. I should have done it sooner like in my twenties. So nice not to be involved in all the bs and tyrannical hierarchy. Enjoy it cause you earned it. Have a great time! | |||

Congratulations! I told my ex-employer I'd answer questions and the like for a while after I retired. Log in remotely and fix stuff if my replacements got into a bind, if necessary. After a year of that happening several times, they called me one morning in a panic. Told 'em "I can fix it, but the free ride is over. This will be chargeable at $rate. I estimate X hours. Payment terms are net 30. 10% discount if paid w/in ten days." They called me back and said "Never mind." Never got another call after that  Don't miss the job one little bit.

Congrats! 1.5 years to go for me with 32 years in federal service when I go. I HATE that I’ll be getting out under such a criminal administration. I could go now, but I’m thinking I’ll need every penny I can get in the bank.

I retired last year after 37 years and even though it was in a different occupation than you I can commiserate with not having to deal with all the BS anymore! I think my blood pressure dropped 25 points the day after! ------------------ Eddie Our Founding Fathers were men who understood that the right thing is not necessarily the written thing. -kkina | |||
