Retired two years ago at 53 years young. At first, I missed getting up in the cold mornings and working among the ice and snow . Being abused repeatedly on the jobs by the powers to be. Now, I'm getting use to staying up as long as I want. Doing what ever I feel when I want to. I look at each day as a blessing, so fortunate to be able to retire at such a young age with relatively good health. I had a very close friend work 25 years, and unexpectedly passed at 48 years young. This really opened my eyes to what is really important in our lives. Remember, each day you remain on the job is a day of your life that you trade off for cash...and a day you can never get back.
