<i><b>Falina;<br /><br />I started in the wholesale auto parts business in1962. Until about 9 years ago when we were bought out, the business was fun. After buy-out it became a business of not so much helping the installers, and fleet customers, but it was all about the company (somewhat nascissistic) and the corporate berating of it&#39;s employees.<br /><br />I retired Nov 14th last at 63 1/2 with NO retirement and a small amount of money (and I mean small) in the bank. I could not have done this if my wife (Kathy) did not continue to work and carry insurance on me.<br /><br />What I&#39;m saying is your life and mental well being is a lot more important than the worries of a business. True I&#39;m drawing Social Security for what it is and there is no square on the check designate &quot;cruise fund&quot; but Kathy says we will again.<br /><br />I now am employed as a household coordinator...I cook, clean, do laundry, grocery shop, run errands and anything else that the family needs and <u>I LOVE IT.</u><br /><br />Thanks for letting me rant and for reading.<br /><br />Later<br />Jim</b></i>
