Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Not too long after I retired, I attended a promotion party of a former co-w*rker. I was initially excited because I hadn't seen most of the other "fly guys" in a while and thought it would be fun to catch up.
Oh, was I wrong. Very, very wrong. Instead of enjoying some good BBQ and sampling lots of wonderful craft beer, I got to listen to these fools pontificate endlessly about how they were going to fix this issue and that issue at w*rk. I tried to bring up *other* subjects, but it just kept coming back to that. I wound up leaving fairly early and haven't really talked to any of them since.
In retrospect, I knew that when I retired, I was DONE. I hated the subsequent phone calls about airplane issues and was OVER DEALING with it. So, I should have known that an activity that involved former co-w*rkers would revolve around..well, W*RK. So...never doing that again.
