Full time employment: Posting here.
On my bike ride today the mind was wandering and it occurred to me that I have always used my occupation as something to "play off of" as far as my "self-identity" is concerned. At various times I have enjoyed being: the oil industry guy who bikes to work, the physics teacher who plays the harpsichord, the bureaucrat who bikes to work, the physics teacher who is a single digit handicap golfer, etc.
In other words, I've always been able to use my job situation to move conversations to topics I am really interested in - my hobbies.
Does this ring a bell with anyone? How did it change when you retired?
