Back at it...

My last day at IBM is the 31st, and I am actually quite optimistic about the future. I will get some severance, I have a 5 month contract job lined up, and I have a few prospects for full time work in WI. With permission from my wife (I think she is taking pity on me) I am moving forward with mechanical work on the Hudson. Brakes, exhaust manifold gasket leak, and electronic ignition are on the lists. Dual exhaust is just off the list and I hope to somehow get it on. Also on hold is the interior work. Technically the interior is not on hold, but my upholsterer believes he has a line on true matching fabric, and it is taking a very long time to validate that and get it rolling.

Nice post...



As you note ... there is indeed life after the real job. Not trying to be snide with this remark. I am a graduate of the 8-5 league and have operated a successful contract consulting company for many years.



31 March must be a popular date... I too will be ending a long term consulting job on that day. Note: the next day is 01 APRIL... aka April Fools Day. I am going to take that day off and enjoy Hudsoning!



Good Luck as you move forward with the employment transition and the Hudsoning.

My last day at work was October 4th of last year. I was not too sure I was ready for retirement. Guess what, I was!!!! It is a great life--what we do after we complete our career......

I guess my problem is that I have another 20-30 years until retirement :rolleyes: I can't ***** too much about being young though
