I finished working in 2004, and retired officially a year later, as I had banked vacation time which also accrued further vacation time. While I generally enjoyed my time as a steelworker, the last couple of years weren't a lot of fun, as the company was struggling and the workplace atmosphere was getting a bit ugly.
While I've never had a problem working at just about anything, retirement is the best job I've ever had: no clock to punch, no set bedtime or time to get up, or need to be anywhere at a specific time...perfect for a body's internal "clock". I can pretty-much come and go as I please, and it's ideal for appreciating life and all that it offers. I am very thankful to be so generously blessed, and it would be impossible for me to recommend retirement more enthusiastically.
