16 years and counting
I spent 20 years as a machinist, retired from that job and got a job as a supervisor at the Port of Oakland for a few years, left that job to go back to school to study nursing, graduated with a BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing), and worked as an RN (Registered Nurse) until I retired in 2008. Now, about 2 or 3 days a week, I do volunteer work at Children’s Hospital in Oakland, spending time, and playing with some very sick children.
Retired 2016. Wanted to go to 62, but other medical factors prevented. Got a good retirement.
Worked for 45 years, stayed longer to train my replacements and only worked on projects with minimal supervision. Overtime was not a problem. Then company said no more projects, wasn’t fun to go to work any more, See-Ya.
Retired couple years.
