Title: Airboy's Final Carrier Landing
Post by: airboy on November 17, 2018, 12:39:10 PM
I put in my retirement papers two weeks ago.  After I turn in grades in mid-December I'm retired. 

I've worked 3 jobs for most of the last 30 years.  I've stopped consulting and expert witnessing.  The College professor job ends in mid-December.  The real estate development work I've been doing is almost finished (hopefully).  Writing under an anonymous name is no longer necessary.

I'll finally have time for PBEMAIL and face to face regular gaming.

I'm also starting up my own game and travel blog so my accumulated work is easily accessible.

Quite.

Man Airboy, that must feel fantastic.  I fantasize about retirement every single day.

Good on you.  Be sure to post a link to your blog when you have it up and running!   :notworthy:

I was going to ^ditto the blog part, when I realized I agree with the whole sentiment!   O0

Way to go Airboy! Welcome to the 'Ranks of the Retired'. Now you're officially annoying to young people. First step is to ask everywhere you go, "Do you have a give a Senior Discount"? Most places don't but it's great to watch young people make faces when you ask them that.  :P

Congrats.  Also be sure to ask what day it is a lot.  That brings a lot of eye rolls.

Does "Are you really old enough to work here?" help when you want to liven it up?

Yes, followed by, "Have you seen my teeth anywhere"?
