Title: So in about 12 hours...
Post by: Thunder Chicken on October 18, 2009, 05:36:38 PM
...I'll be leaving for my first day at my new job. Looking forward to getting out into the workforce again (and earning a paycheque). Tools are all loaded into the Jeep (the Jeep itself is locked up in the garage, not gonna leave thousands of dollars worth of tools in the driveway), lunch is made, new work clothes and boots are laid out. The next chapter in my life is about to start. Wish me luck...

But 65 Isn't your retirement age. I'm 43 and I can't get full retirement until I'm 70. Yours will be 75 by then.:punchballs:

Today went quite well. Changed some tires, did a few brake jobs, replaced a broken engine mount in a Dodge minivan (the bolts were all broken, I had to drill & tap holes), chased down an electrical gremlin in an '01 Impala, and diagnosed a burned valve in another Dodge minivan. I'm enjoying doing my trade again...

Good luck with that. I had the same deal at my place too, full retirement after 30 years. Then, after I was there for over 20 years, they changed all of the rules. So, now maybe I'll be able to afford to retire when I'm about 85. lol.

 be careful... With all that production, you could work yourself out of a job... :rollin:

Once they know you're good with electrical, you'll get all the weird problems...

x2

seriously....

show your cards a little at a time.  Yeah, easy for me to say as i generally come out full speed so i should'nt talk.

I am curious to hear about how you see things have changed since you have been away.

details like how the shop runs, what the major focus is , the little details like whats important and whats not.

well,, maybe you wont be able to tell since you prob already told em you run a website on cars.:bowdown:
