Tomorrow is my last day, after 34 years at megacorp. My team is global, so we had a virtual conference call today for my farewell 'party'. It was very fun, and I was surprised that I wasn't able to speak when it was my turn. I got really emotional, and then of course everyone else did, asking me why I was retiring if I'm so sad about it.
All I could say was "because I can". One colleague said "thanks for rubbing it in".
Coming here and reading posts of those of you who have 'crossed over' and are loving it helps, but frankly I'm shocked at this sense of melancholy I'm experiencing.
I guess that I'm sad now, but won't be soon?
