    Is everyone retired?

    At 9:43 there are 1149 users on line. I'm retired, but what about the rest of you? Are you at work and not doing you're job?.. On break?... What?

    A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. My desk is a work station.

    Retired in 1999 at the age of 55. I retired because I read the statistics on people in my profession that retired at 65, the majority lived only 18 months after retiring.

    The US has a a few time zones, and the site is available to pretty much the whole planet which has even more time zones. Some of those 1149 users on line just came back from work, some are about to go to work.

    I retired a couple months ago however I am now working in my sign shop full time again. Since mine is a one person business I am the boss and I am the guy who sweeps the floor among other jobs so I can give myself a little rest period whenever I please

    I'm at work. I check in from time to time to let my brain go in another direction for a few minutes and clear out the cobwebs. We have a 7 1/2 hours work day and I am RARELY here less than 8 hours and I RARELY claim any comp time. Often it will take me more than an hour to formulate a response because of work related "interruptions." I was "interrupted" 4 times while typing this response up.
