Last Day

And with that I went into work today with a clear head and positive attitude and walked out unexpectedly retired.

Sorry to hear, happened to me twice - one reason why I am reluctant to go back to salary. Yeah it has good benefits.
However now that I freelance and contract, I never have to answer to a boss and I have my own hours.
I love that more then anything.

Welcome, new adventures! I hope this turns into something positive for you whether it's an early beginning to retirement, or just a chance to do something else for a while.

More details please, usually never a good situation. As long as you have your camaro life should be grand. Being in Ohio makes work very depressing this time of year, maybe when it warms up we can meet and take a drive around a few suburbs.

Sorry to hear this, This is becoming a trend of companies letting go of people making the money they should with benefits and hiring "temp Help" with low pay and no benefits. Dang shame seeing the middle class shrink so fast

Naw, I'm ok. I had planned on retiring later in the year. The process just got speeded up a little bit.

But yeah, no SS payments in the future for me.

Thanks everybody for your thoughts !


ROAD TRIP !
