Exactly 2 weeks from today I'll be hanging up my hard hat for the last time. I've been employed at KY Utilities for the last 34 years now and I'm calling it a career.

Not sure what I'll do next. More fishing and golf I suppose.

Congratulations!!! Hope you enjoy it.

One of life's milestones. Good time of year for it too.

Whatever you do enjoy it, but most important, don't do nothing. Stay busy, give yourself a purpose. Most of all, make your loved ones so tired of seeing you that they tell you so... [Big Grin]

I'll remember that advice, CatFanRick

Time to buy season tickets for football and basketball.

...and invite your TCD friends. [Big Grin]

Congratulations! I'm weighing retirement myself...trying to pick a date. I've been eligible for 5 years, but with the economy I worry.
Stay active doing something, anything, get involved in charity work.....but don't be afraid to tell people no when they try to dump too much on you.

Congrats, MH. Enjoy life - it wasn't meant to be spent working. [Smile]

My plan is three more years. When I hit 59, I'm done!

Congrats.....sounds like a great career and I am sure it will be an even better retirement.

Excellent. A hearty congratulations to you!

Got our season tix yet? [Big Grin]

Posted by CatfanRick (Member # 126) on 07-31-2024, 03:17 PM:

That makes today the FIRST day... [Cool]

I haven't run out and bought the season tix yet, but I do intend on attending a game for the first time in several years this season!
