Rode out the gates for the last time .Nearly 27 years of my life !!!!Feeling a mixture of emotions at this time .Spirit of my dad giving me a hard time (irresponsible , not the done thing don't you know there's a recession on etc etc ) Also feeling empowered and liberated .For the first time since leaving school 38 YEARS AGO !!!!!! I am in charge .Not feeding and clothing the kids not paying a mortgage not working up to 65 hours a week .Wonder which one will take over ? Got some adjusting to do that's for sure but i know deep down under the circumstance's it had to be done .Wish me luck but please don't tell me i'll be sorry even if you think it !!!
awesome!
You jammy......
Enjoy it!
shouldn't be too much of a shock to the system. 27 years of doing little work (other than distributing red elastic bands around the streets) and going on strike lots should be ideal preparation for not working at all.
(seriously - good luck 🙂 )
Sounds good. You have nothng else lined up?
Resigned or redundant?
Whatever reason good luck and don't get stuck in a rut. Ride more and appreciate the extra time you now have to enjoy your life.
Sorry??? Fuuuuuuccccckkkkk that oldfart - best move you'll ever make. Good on you, anyone coming on here to knock you will likely be jealous and stuck in a shittty job wishing they had the cajones to do th same as you.
Welll done man, enjoy your freedom.
Day I left I felt the same mix of emotions but suspect this was cos I was leaving good mates rather than an under appreciatd, under rewarded, tiring job. Ps if you feel you can't stomach another round of industrial action then I think you deserve a break after 27 years.
Bigyinn my decision took the money and run !MussEd same as you good mates same circumstances with the job . Cynic -al fingers crossed going to Whistler to work next summer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing other than that !
