Well, I just turned in my 2 weeks notice first thing this morning, with my last time working here at noon today since I have 2.5 weeks of vacation left available to use. 33.5 years, legacy Minolta and then Konica Minolta and over the last several years I've just gotten completely burned out at this job. Going to be starting the new job on May 9th and I'm excited about the possibilities of it. I'll be building large control panels used to control material handling equipment such as baggage handling systems, grain at elevators, and the assembly lines used in automotive manufacturing. And then possibly running a laser cutting machine which the company is installing in the next couple months.

I'll pop in here once in a while but I'll be a bit too busy most of the time.

Best of luck to you in your future endeavors.

I'm happy for you, I work for a sole proprietorship (not very attentive to the sector and alas not innovative) a little tired of spinning like a top in Rome, in traffic, parking almost impossible to find, I'm considering setting up on my own, exploiting my skills for myself and not for others at this price.

I hope you like what you do and do it with pleasure. I believe you should not do what does not satisfy you in this life because otherwise, we lose our lives in vain. Until now, I have worked for many years in a corporation, and I have done accounting. And this year, I decided to give up doing it. Instead, I would like to offer accounting courses to those young people who want to learn about it. In parallel with the courses that I upload and teach through the Tutor Matching With Students [Step-by-Step] | TutorCruncher, I started learning to program. This is so new for me, but I like it a lot!

I am also leaving the copier field.

I am retiring after 36 years in the field.

Last day is Dec. 30th of this year.

All the best, That seems like an awesome job. I use to run a Mazak laser cutter. It's just memorizing to watch how it zips through sheet metal. Older 2KW CO2 laser. Its also fun to learn the nesting, posting and job setup. Then more in-dept CAM programing and then CAD to complete it all.
