I gave the company notice seven years ago, I gave them a hard date when I finished my chemo. 

Congratulations ! 
 

 Not exactly the same, but I told my boss I’m out at 65…so in 5 years and 7 months  . 
 Will also give em a hard date when it gets closer.

I keep telling my boss it won't be long until I can't do the work anymore. I think he finally took me seriously because the big over-head stuff that really causes me issues has been getting spread around a bit lately. Too bad it took me telling him that my issues were bad enough I'd been applying to other jobs to get listened to.

I worked for the same company for 40 years, after a vacation dispute I retired in 2004, then worked another 6 years as a consultant.

Looking forward to seeing you at the big show in June.      Enjoy your retirement Jay and "Don't Let the Old Man in".

Congratulations, I stopped working at the end of January and have never been so busy doing things.

That's why finally the wife got a new kitchen and bathroom.  I didn't want to do while I was working because of all the other normal things that had to be done.  Working and doing those kinds of jobs take forever.

11 years and counting, next to marrying my wife 48 years ago it the best thing I've ever done, but every now and then I think it's may be the best thing.

Congratulations Jay !!!

Always think of doing nothing as something to do and you will be OK.

Matt Taylor, of Taylor Retirement Services, always says it's better to have something to retire to, rather than retire from.

Congratulations Jay! I’m not quite there yet but for the second time today I’ll say something I heard a long time ago. The older you get, the more important it is to not act your age!
