Staying up and binging something on a work night does hold a little fun. Those poor slobs are getting out into traffic, dealing with overbearing bosses, insane deadlines and unsatisfied customers or suits.
My wife was a teacher, retired "officially" as of tomorrow. The teachers have to report and start work for the new year on Friday. We are going to the beach.  |
I've been retired for 9 months and other than an immediate trip to Roatan that allowed me to sleep-in a little longer (other than the travel days), but after that I found that the internal clock still worked. I used to start work around 4:45a, but teleworking allowed me to sleep until 4:30a and shower later in the day.
So I'd say let nature take its course, your internal clock will adjust over a few months. I'm still a 6:30-7:00am person, but that's because I don't want to sleep away my retirement.
Just my $.02
