I didn\u2019t want to retire, but the owners of the company wanted me to, but i was given no choice, I could either bow out gracefully, or they would fire me anyway, the problem was that I wasn\u2019t ready to stop working yet. It wasn\u2019t about the money so much as being about having something to do with my time. I have worked for the same company for 30 years, plus at this late stage of my life I don\u2019t have unquestionably much else. The youngsters have moved away, the spouse divorced me for a younger fellow, so my labor as an Heating and A\/C tech has become my whole life. I decided that it was time for a major change, so I picked a far-off tropical endpoint on a Caribbean island plus I started looking for Heating and A\/C tasks; Much to my surprise I found that in the tropical islands there is a strong need for certified Heating and A\/C techs. Most of this labor is for exclusive resorts plus hotels, because big numbers of the local population don\u2019t have air conditioner at all. a\/c is mostly for the tourists, but because tourism is so lucrative, these arenas are willing to pay top dollar for experienced help. In a couple of weeks I went from being depressed about retirement to being stoked about a new Heating and A\/C position in a lovely new arena! Although I have 30 years of Heating and A\/C experience, I feel that I can still labor for another 15 or 20 years before I get too old to handle it. I\u2019ll see you on the beach! <\/p>\n
