As per the title, i retired a little over 4 years ago and loved it. I had a ton of projects that I got done around the house, tried a few new hobbies, all of the great things that retirement is supposed to be.
Here's the thing...I got a job offer from an old colleague and have been working for the past 3 months. The job is good, the pay is good. But I have no passion for it!! I don't need to work, but the extra income certainly helps out since I did retire early and I am still cautious that my money will not outlast me.
I has always been a top performer, and I feel I am maybe contributing at a 50% level since I'm not really driven to achieve any more. They are happy with my work though, with my previous knowledge and experience, even at 50% it's probably 110% more than many others within the company.
I guess not really looking for advice, as I know I can just pull the plug and go back to my workshop. Just sharing my thoughts right now as I sit here contemplating why the hell I accepted the job in the first place. Oh right, there's the pay check .
Have a great day everyone!!
