Yesterday was my last day, which I spent writing 66 individual emails to many of the people who made my life at work so much more precious. I spent 15,303 days with the company, or 41.9 years.
Technically I still work there, but I have 5 weeks of vacation to use up. I was part time, so that takes me all the way to July 10, when I have an exit interview. But I do not have any work at all, I'm on vacation, then a half hour formality, then permanently retired.
Well, as permanent as it can be. I turn 66 in four days. You know.
I hike, and when I turned 62 I was able to buy a park pass that never needs replacing. They called it a "Lifetime Pass". But it's hardly a Lifetime Pass if you can't buy it until 62! They should have called it a "Remaining Lifetime Pass".
This probably demonstrates why I could never have made it in marketing.
