Yesterday was my last day at my job of the last 21 years. It feels surreal.
All those years along the way you think "man I can't wait to leave this dump" and you keep your head down and grind through it. Funny thing is, when you start getting close to the end you don't feel that way anymore.
It seems crazy that I don't work there anymore.
Today I am retired

Retirement is great! I’ve been retired for 15 years. In Spanish,the word for retirement is jubilado or jubilant. They are not wrong!

Wow, man - congrats! I trust you'll find the way to an enjoyable post-work life.
Because sometimes the body just wants canned fish.
