Hi all
Looking for some guidance and advice post retirement.
I'm 48 at the moment and will be looking to semi-retire at 55 from my current job as a jetty operator - Oil terminal here at Milford Haven.
Working 12 hour nightshifts are getting difficult to maintain and are affecting my health.
My intention is to semi retire into a technically challenging role but at reduced hours and daylight hours.
I've always been hands on since buying my first run down house at 18years and doing it up, moving on and buying another. A string of ex girlfriends / wives have benefitted from them mind!
I would like to pursue a role in the electrical industry but scale it back to just being a domestic installation electrician and able to self certify and sign off my own work.
Hopefully I can start up my own little business that my son or daughter can get into when they're grown up and they could become full blown electricians as it's such a diversified subject.
Where I'm at now is - next Wednesday I complete my EAL Electro Technical Diploma 6724 Level 2 and I'm going back to college in September to do my EAL Level 3 9331 for 1 year.
What you guys reckon on my next step?
Cheers
