This is my normal Friday off and my last Friday at full-time work. Next Wednesday April 30 I join the ranks of The Retired. I plan on taking May off (possibly June also) before I consider part-time consulting. I plan to never work for 40 hours a week for someone else if I can avoid it. The company I now work for would like me to work part-time as needed to review and check engineering documents. 2-3 days a week for short periods of time. I told them I cannot promise to be anywhere before 9:00 AM and after 3:00 PM was problematic. 40+ years is long enough. I have not saved and invested that long for nothing. I'll drink a beer later for ya. The week back at work after vacation is grueling.
Congrats on your retirement!
