About two months before I retired my boss from the east coast called and chewed my *** out for "not telling" him that I was retiring at the end of the year. I let him rant and rave until I could get a word in. I reminded him that we had a long conversation earlier in the year about my plans to retire. And that he should start thinking of hiring my replacement. He continued to rant and rave and I just sat there and let him go. He never did get a replacement for me, the existing crew would tell me how he would call them and complain because they were so far behind. I felt good leaving there. Except for the fact my co-workers were inundated with work. I never had any offers for contract work, to stay a bit longer or anything. Not that I would have accepted! Things suffered for a bit, and they never got me replaced.
Funny how when management doesn't really care about you except to bitch, ****, or moan, that we get an attitude back at them!
Stan, hope your retirement goes better than mine!!

Stan. When they ask you to stay. Tell them sure. Just let me get my tools in my car. Then just leave and never go back.

Burgers on the grill. Debating whether to watch the game. Prime is kind of a pain.

Howdy, Larry. Our weather got all springlike after attempting to kill us just a few short days ago.
