Congratulations from someone who has no hope of retiring in the next ten years of my life lol. My parents both retired at your age though. Enjoy it!

The best thing is that I work for myself.

The worst thing is that my boss is an idiot.

Wait…. What? Does this happen often enough that it’s an issue? Or is that you’re saying that ONE is more than too many?

Best: I’m busy, we’re always making stuff, shipping stuff, it’s productive and interesting. Rarely is any single day the same. No scope for boredom.

Worst: Bloody hell, I’m busy. I need to prioritise better, and delegate more. There’s never enough time in the day to get through everything, and my low priority items are perpetually shifted forward into the next week.

Best: setting my own hours

Worst: having to actually follow the hours I set two weeks ago
