I am retiring after 42 years as a Medical Laboratory Scientist, the last 22 years as the Administrative Director. My time fishing will dramatically increase. I will have the opportunity to explore many new streams.

Congratulations on your retirement - well deserved and certainly earned.
I retired from health care 3 yr ago and fished quite a bit the past few years, but lately I have been missing the privilege and honor of caring for sick individuals and fishing has sort of become passe. I am exploring options to return to caring for folks - but without dealing with hospital administrators.
I wish you well.

I just don't think the "f" suggestion has a place in someone's retirement thread. IMO, it was in poor taste.

Can you show us on the doll where the post hurt you?
 
Congratulations. I know my fishing has increased greatly after I retired earlier this year.
 
Congrats, and enjoy all that extra time on the water. After retiring last year, it’s so nice to fish “leisurely” instead of thinking, “okay I only have 3 hours to fish today, so they better be biting.”
 
Congrats! I am thinking the same thing. I just need my wife to go back to full-time so she can get us bebefits and so I can fish when she's not around to complain about me fishing. Wish me luck!
 
Congratulations! You won't regret spending more time fishing, less time working. I have been so busy since retiring a few years back that I don't know how I ever had time to work before.

This is why I work. I lack the energy to retire.

Enjoy your retirement.
 
Congratulations. Enjoy your time.

I retired after getting laid off just short of 59.5. You would think I might say that, but they did me such a huge favor that I found it very difficult hiding my happiness. Trust me; I was smiling on the inside. One co-worker even asked to volunteer to take my place, but I told him not to. I guess I hid my joy quite well. I even stayed friends with my boss for a couple months until he got laid off. Ok, we stayed in touch until he found another job in California. That was going on 5 years ago.

Little did I know that a few months later, my wife would start having health issues which persist off and on to this day. Needless to say, I haven't been able to enjoy retirement. It almost makes me wish I was still working.

Almost, but not quite.

Enjoy your retirement, early and often.
