I'm not retired but I have been through redundancy 3 times.
I'm 40 years old. I was in my late 20's the first time.
Every interview I did, I thought I had earned myself a drink.
Every job I didn't get I consoled myself with a drink.
I can't imagine what retirement might be like if I miss working and have not got my drinking under control.
Thank goodness I have at the moment at least.
I wish you the best xx
