Take early retirement. Best thing I ever did.
Congrats by the way.
I've got just under two years to go, I'm tempted, I've just got to figure out how to fund it.

Yes, got a new role with a competitor and thoroughly looking forward to it after working for that tosspot!
Oh I was careful not to insult anyone as I also work in quite asmall community of people and paths do cross from time to time.Careful........
I don't know about your industry, but in mine the first rule of survival is "never insult anyone, he could be your next boss".
My current boss (CEO of a multinational PLC), was a little fat twenty something kid that I showed the basics to some 25 years ago on the first day he started full time work when we were both at different companies, and out of 1,500 employees around the world I have worked with at least 40 of them in different companies at different times.
You lucky devil, whenever I've ever handed my notice in I've been made to stick it out until the bitter end!

The pleasure came from telling a man who has dinosaur like man management skills I was going and watching the realisation dawn on him that this is one situation he cannot control.
Two things have surprised me since my decision was made public. Firstly, the lengths they are going to in order to try and keep me within the business. This won't be happening despite a very lucrative financial offer as I won't work for that man for a moment longer through choice. And secondly, the number of colleagues who have openly told me they are pursuing other opportunities for the same reasons.
