Joined the club 12/31 at age 61. Was going to bail earlier in the year (around March), but didn't feel like walking out the door with the COVID spinning up and the markets going crazy. Still could have done it, just decided to let the dust settle first. Plus I was busy anyways and they wanted me to stay.

Kind of an odd feeling since I've been doing a mix of WFH and going in (and I went part time to ease into it). But even when I went in, the place was maybe at 30% occupied. Plus I mostly stayed in the lab with only 4-5 people. So it's more like a feeling of just walking out the door w/o saying a proper goodbye and shaking hands with co-workers.

Quoted from JohnnyPinball007:

...My phone is turned off now, they can kiss my ass at the moment...

Did almost the same thing. Put it on vibrate and turned off all notifications. Maybe check it a couple of times a day if I walk by it. Never did Farcebook or any of the other social crap, so I wasn't never in the habit of checking my phone constantly.

I think most the time I get up earlier now since I have the day ahead of me to do whatever I want (or whatever the wife tells me to do).
