I am sure the next two days will be bearable... At least you can see the other side.
I have a meeting with the big bosses tomorrow - I am on 3 months notice, so maybe if I hand it in, I'll live to be a 100? :D

I had to do 3 months notice once, in a job I hated. That wasn't too bad as I was part-time, but it was still bad. They let me go a day and a half early.Quote:

That's it. Clocked out for the last time at 1728 - I am done. A life of leisure awaits.
I bet you couldn't have imagined thirty years ago that not working might be a good thing.Quote:

I never recall being bored, there was always something going on. Plus I had a fantastic girlfriend at the time.Quote:

Congrats on your retirement, Martin!
We're about the same age, but sadly I'll probably be working until I drop down dead!
Sure you probably sorted for pensions and that? I never bothered which was daft really as could have done this a lot sooner. I always had money left at the end of the month and I should have been putting it into my pension. That's cost me thousands. I'm too much of a live for today type.Quote:
