I’ve got about 9 more years until I can go, but will likely stay a little longer, or maybe leave government service and do something else for a few years. Mostly because I think 50 might be just a hair too young to retire.




“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Congratulations, I still need many years of employment to be able to retire, with kids college and weddings ahead of me.

Guess I’ll jump onto this “Me, too” train...40 years yesterday with my agency. I’ll tell you all about it in 99 years.

Congrats, you give a young (ish) man hope. I also work for the .gov and while the money is good, it can crush your soul if you let it. I always like to see folks get out before they are too broken down to enjoy retirement.
Here’s to a long retirement. May you get as many years out of them as they got out of you.

Congratulations and welcome to the finish line!

I crossed that line 5 years and two days ago. Where does the time go?

Congratulations! Time to enjoy life-you've earned it. I retired last year a few months earlier than planned, more or less due to COVID, but it's worked out fine.

Funniest post I've seen in awhile. You can pee on whoever you're planning on using the pitchfork on Big Grin
