I'm down to seven working days. This is working out well for me because the company I work for, well contracting with, was purchased and is being dissolved. Our IT department is winding down and we just sit around waiting for them to turn out the lights.
Have started looking into Medicare and am shocked at how much this costs the average person. My dentist and eye care centers do not take any Medicare at all so I will need to find a new one. Been going to them for over thirty years...
I'm a little bit nervous about the whole thing because I've spent my entire working life defining myself as what I can do for the job and now that's going to be gone.
Lots of changes in IT; from punched cards to 'the cloud'. Seen the rise of the PC and the fall of the mainframe. Been an interesting ride and I'm glad I'm going to be out of IT.
