Congratulations! I retired last year after 32 years in the nuclear industry, the last 20 as a licensed reactor operator in the control room. I was working 12 hour rotating shifts with a lot of overtime and no end in sight. As soon as the bills were paid off and we had put some money away, I said enough is enough. I don't have as much free time as I thought I would, but it is nice to be able to put something on the calendar and know I will actually be able to do it.
