With the internet and a gazillion books and articles and videos I could happily retire today and fill my time with no trouble whatsoever. Good luck.

I cannot conceive of retirement. So long as I am capable of standing in front of a bunch of people and keeping their attention, I'm hot to trot. After that...bring on the bottle of whisky and the frosty night, and I'll be happy.

We are, yes. It's easy to take it for granted, sometimes.

I rescue fallen women, and men as a careline responder and I loved it, until recently.
It's a 24/7 job which was starting to get me down, that was until management got hold of it
and totally screwed everything up. To this end, I might try and take a sideways move into sheltered housing.

I was interviewed for a similar job, which I would also love and can do earlier and can't help feeling I could have done better and should have done better and feel I have fucked it Still, I am currently employed in a worthwhile job.

Sometimes my customers get on my fucking tits, other times I enjoy my work. Today is very much the latter...

A friend of ours is Portugese, she has not seen her elderly parents since Christmas 2019 cos plague. At this moment their aircraft is over the Bay of Biscay roaring towards Heathrow where Varnia is waiting for them. When I sorted out their entry requirements for Covid and that for them, it became clear that she would finally see them again and she broke down in tears. Being able to help in this way is extremely satisfying

I still love my jobs I'm at a completely different level now and am actually influencing and shaping some national stuff that I've been passionate about since the 70s. I'm having dinner with the labour premiere for Qld on Monday FFS ! I'm not sure how these things are even happening to me but they are so...

 

[Looby]

I have decided I’m never going to love a job because my yearning not to work is too strong. I just don’t want to do it. I haven’t got anything better or more meaningful to do, my job is the meaningful and worthy bit. I’m just lazy.
Saying that, I think/hope my new job is getting close to at least really liking it.
WFH
Treated like an adult
Well-being stuff galore

Fingers crossed it stays this way. I think I deserve it after two horrendous years in my last job.

 

[weltweit]

and another thing, it isn't bad what I do, but I am pretty sure on my deathbed I won't be saying that I wished I had spent more time at work

My last day at work was a particularly good and satisfying day at work. Of the 3 people I "rescued" one was a big bloke half on the floor, half caught up in his bed frame. I even managed to untangle him before the fire brigade arrived

Weird starting my new job today by walking from one side of my room to the other...

Solidarity, though I've had a forty minute train ride to my new place of work. I've had three and a half months compassionate leave (+ summer hols) and seem to remember liking my job but not as much as I've liked being with my wife and kids all summer.

Lined up a new project on Saturday

Mauritania. Could be a nightmare but a 14 day full paid quarantine in a hotel room is probably the therapy I need at the minute

Less so the curfuffle getting PCR test in required time and all my travel jabs which I’ve let slide badly
Throw in moving house in 5 days…..I think I’m on the wrong thread
