Early retirement since 2015, so whatever I want, whenever I want :) Prior to retirement, last 30 years with a French oil and gas company which made my early retirement possible. I spent the last ten+ years prior to retirement as a member of the international management team.

Just changed jobs. Start Jan 2. Moving to RI and work in New Bedford Mass. Technical Field Service Manager over the US for HTP boilers. Hanging up the wrenches after almost 30 years and moving into an office job just consulting and troubleshooting and teaching call center and techs how to better run the customer service end of things. It’s a big change. I’m moving out about 6 months ahead of my wife. Couldn’t pass up the opportunity.

I guess you're the only two with understanding wife's, because mine sure doesn't.

I`m a researcher in the neuroscience field, I dig into dirty motorbike and Porsche engines with the same entusiasm as into the brain... :D

Me too. My wife is awesome. How awesome? She just nods "sure" when I ask if its ok to buy a spare engine so I won't miss any races when the engine in my car now blows up.

Yeah, she's "having a spare Porsche engine is a normal thing" kind of awesome.

Ditto... my wife just rolls her eyes in amusement when I get all excited about a new part or whatever (particularly if I got a good deal) she enjoys the car, and let’s me be me...

I do computer security and have done IT for a couple of 10s of years. My wife is very encouraging of my car habit though tries to keep me from driving us into bankruptcy buying parts. Keep telling myself it doesn't have to all be done at once :)
