Jacques Boileau Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 ...today is my last day of work! ? I will finally concentrate on music from now on! My kids: 'Hey dad, you will have plenty of time now!' Me: 'With all I wanna do, I will barely have enough!' Putting overtime in the studio does not feel that bad of an idea though. ? 2
Mesh Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Congrats Jacques!! You're living a musicians dream now, stay inspired and make lots of music!! 1
Gswitz Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Congrats! I hope it lives up to expectations. 1

I now officially live through you. No pressure!!! Seriously, congrats! 1
bayoubill Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 I remember that day . Great feeling Give some thought about what would be fun to record or learn before you start remember to go with what feels good once you’re in and sit down no pressure just have fun
Jacques Boileau Posted September 30, 2020 Author Posted September 30, 2020 Thanks everyone! It certainly feels great! I had a great career as a software developer, but I will enjoy doing something else with my computer!
slartabartfast Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 Not working a job is not necessarily equivalent to free time. I am amazed at how much I could accomplish in eight hours on the job, and how little I can get done in 24 hours now. Good luck. 1 1
craigb Posted September 30, 2020 Posted September 30, 2020 'Zactly! If you're not working, then everything is "free" time, but that doesn't mean anything will get accomplished! LOL. 1
Jacques Boileau Posted September 30, 2020 Author Posted September 30, 2020 A shot of me after my last day! Couldn't help myself...
Starise Posted October 1, 2020 Posted October 1, 2020 You look a little young to retire. ...oh wait that might not be you!!! ? 1
craigb Posted October 1, 2020 Posted October 1, 2020 Good thing they cut that scene before the trash truck... Never mind.
57Gregy Posted October 1, 2020 Posted October 1, 2020 Congratulations! I freed myself last November, and looked forward to being able to record as much as I wanted to. Instead, I find myself getting fat watching TV and eating becan. Good luck! 2

Jacques Boileau Posted October 1, 2020 Author Posted October 1, 2020 Not its not me, although I thought the sunglasses would throw you off! ? I do the same with my car... when the streets are snow covered and slippery! ? First day: didn't eat becan, watched only 45min of TV, so far so good, crossing my fingers...
Starise Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 Congrats on retirement Jacques! Please don't rub it in on us poor working stiffs. I do the car thing in winter as well but with me it's not intentional. Have had some close calls up here in Eastern PA in the snow. I sort of found out anti-lock brakes should really be called anti-stop brakes. 1

Starise Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 Oh, that must have a different meaning where you're from. Just know that if you get the nickname "pokey" or farm animals run you might be over doing things a little bit ? Just sayin'.....where was this all going? I forget now. 1
