The class I was teaching is no longer offered. My last day is the 28th of May. This is a good thing really, I have everything paid off and I have a good retirement. I might go back to subing next year or I might do something else. I just turned 60 so I have a few good years left. I might see how many miles I can rack up this summer.

You have the right attitude, I think that congratulations are in order, file for unimployment. Also you are more than welcome to visit the MC B&B

What the heck? A guy gets shit-canned and he gets congratulations?

I am of course very jealous!

Jeremy and I are sitting here in the Gettysburg Field Office wondering whether all of you at the MC World Headquarters have lost your minds.

As the boys Down Under might say: Good on ya, mate! :thumb: Now is the time to hit the road in earnest! When will you get another chance like this?

I got certified to teach Automotive 2 years ago. I was then endorsed in Applied Mathematics. I never taught auto but was used as a half time math teacher.

We'll be in the NC mountains for a while this summer, BD. We could put up a weary cross-continental traveler for a couple nights.

Personally, I've found work to be highly over-rated. :)

Crap, I was just hired back. This is going to screw up some bike trips I had planned. With today's economy I would feel guilty not going back to work though.

Now I have to buy something expensive, any suggestions?
