I've got 6 weeks left to work until I put Johnny Paycheck on my outgoing message on my work phone and start the vacation countdown to retirement! I'm 65 already by a few months and my full benefit for SS is 66 and 6 months. At this point, I'll wait for that even though it's only like $80 a month more. My wife is already taking SS and I will just live off my stock dividends until I start SS. Working for the power company for 44 years is long enough. I enjoyed every day of being a lineman for the first 28 years and loved my job as an inspector UNTIL Dook Energy bought our company out in 2012. Dook could screw up a 1 car funeral. I will miss my friends at work, but I've got plenty of work to do out in the garage 40' behind the house...lol. I'm sure looking forward to it!
