re: Do any retirees “miss” work?

There was a job in our company in another division I wanted, but there wasn't a position at the time. Got laid off in July of last year. They were fair with severance yada yada and I was going to retire at that point. Fast forward to November, I was contacted to see if I'd be interested in applying for a new position that was coming up. Things didn't move very fast, but eventually it all came together and I started in early February. Lower salary than before, but good enough for my objectives and I got to work with people I really liked. Prior to that, fantasy football (really) took a lot of my time back then (until the season ended). I did the exercise thing, we travel a lot anyway (I get 6 weeks a year anyway with other days off for holidays), so I didn't miss the travel part anyway. Nothing of interest otherwise to keep me busy. So, no I wasn't bored, but coming back for now works out for us as we have a kid's wedding to pay for, some future trips etc. Maybe I'll retire in a year or two?

FYI, I've enjoyed this guy's YouTube Channel on retirement issues:
