Or when the cat reminds you that he needs fresh food.You only get out of bed when the dog comes up and reminds you she has to go out.
I represent that remark - however, it's a "he" (picture to the left)...You only get out of bed when the dog comes up and reminds you she has to go out.
Congratulations on your retirement!Just retired, as in sold my business 3 weeks ago...
...when going to w*rk feels like a trip to a dentist who is going to fill 5 deep cavities at 8 AM with no Novacaine.
I agree with Grasshopper - when I hit the magic number it was time to go. The magic number in my case was age. I had been playing with the money numbers since my mid-20s and knew back then I would retire when I reached 55 (earliest retirement with retiree health insurance). It was not a hard transition since the plan had been in place for 30 years.
It's much easier to retire on your own terms than having your health or someone else make the decision for you.
... Work was pretty good but I am intent on doing some of my life plans now.
Nice to have more money but money < time in my calculations.
These two quotes resonate, for me. I work in a government job - and I see folks who should have retired years ago (in my mind)... keep coming in and maybe letting the job make them bitter or ill. It reminds me that the time we spend at work is not the sum of our being.But you didn't retire on your own terms. You waited until Corp policy regarding health insurance dictated the date. Just saying..........
This is probably the case for most folks who put in a lifetime locked into MegaCorp or gov't careers.

Yes, she did.Shame on the SVP. He said "on your own terms" and thought "if not we will make you go"...
