Default Retirement at last....AMEN. Thank You all !

One day left, and then I am retired after 31 1/2 years. Now I can finish some of my long term the tank projects.

Get building after the hangover subsides. Are they giving you a gold Futaba?

Congrats! I pulled the pin as a CA LEO after 26 years then moved to OR where I spent another 13 years instructing for a local SO, and the state law enforcement academy.Finished withthose on 1/31 of this year and will very shortly be collecting another monthly retirement check, however as a public safety retiree will be penalized 60% of total SS benefit. You might want to see if that applies to you.

Congrats Bob! You certainly earned it after 31 years. [X(]

Now you can enter the NFL! I hear the Patriots have an opening and you're in the neighborhood too!


Or... build more armor. Which ever works!

Thank you for your service in your line of field. Too bad you couldn't catch the buglar that beat up on that Mom in Millburn, NJ this past week. I hope you enjoy retirement.

I'm curious; while performing an extremely difficult job, you manage to be more involved in a hobby and travel than anyone I know.

I can't wait to see what you do now.

Sorry, no congrats from me.  I don't believe that anyone who has worked only 31.5 years has "earned" retirement.

When I was a child my mother told me that if I didn't have anything nice to say I shouldn't say anything at all. I wish you mother had taught you that rgburrill![>:] There always seems to be some thoughtless person trolling through here!!!

Well done, Bob! Enjoy having more time for things you enjoy than you had while working. It's amazing that there STILL aren't going to be enough hours in the day to get everything done that you want to. Have fun with it, though! -Mike

He must be kidding, at least I hope.

31.5 years as a first responder is like 63 years to others. Besides with no information, how does he know Bob's isn't 80 years old and it's his third career.

Are you 80 Bob? you don't look it...

I agree, if it is some sort of inside joke, cool. If not step off. Bob is way to cool and helpful to be catching negative vibes man!!!

Brainwashed by years of wild capiltalism...
