Retirement II
I took 55 retirement as an Airline Aircraft Inspector with 33 1/2 years in 1996, then as a used aircraft dealer with my own airstrip where I still live. I bought and sold a little over 100 airplanes (mostly Beech Bonanzas) Retired from that in 2011 after getting a 'nastygram' from the FAA and sold my last two Bonanza's a little over a year ago.
Now it's pretty much as 'feralmerril' describes his retirement. Lots of reading, computering,(is that a word?) and NO TV. Haven't had TV in over a year and I Love it. (Nobody telling me who I should be mad at or how to think)

IT professional, both network admin and workstation support.
After two years of unemployment, I'm in the worst job I've had in thirty years, coordinating replacement of leased computers in a large hospital organization. It's way below my level of expertise, but it's all I could find in this economy. No vacation or sick days, and random days off without pay. The project manager for my employer is blitheringly incompetent and cravenly dishonest. I don't know ANYBODY who's not looking to get out if they can.

I was a mechanical designer in a research department. That is probably one reason guns fascinate me. I had to retire to health probs way too early so any work I do is around the house.
