Anyone else retiring soon?
Gave my notice of retirement, last day is May 10th 2022, Started with Borden Chemicals on July 7th 1982. The company has been bought/sold a couple times (raped and picked clean buy KKR and Apollo including Chapter 11, finally to be refinanced buy the creditors, mostly Banks and then sold again) The name has changed a few times and is currently Hexion Chemicals. We have always been quite profitable and solid, even while under the control of the financial rapists.
A College Friend and I have stuck with them trough it all. So after 39+ years of shift work and supervising, I finally get to have control of when I get up in the morning and what I will do each day. My wife and I are going to Mexico for a couple weeks before I finish off, as I want to escape the last of a challenging winter.
The T/A gets to be a top priority now, so hopefully I stay healthy for a while and I can finish what I started and make it what I want.
My wife wants to travel and we have Grandkids scattered in Canada and the US to visit, I still have some rental properties to look after as well. So the car won’t get all my time and money, but it will get a lot more than it did for the past five years.
