W: Simon, how does it feel to be retired?
M: Well, not so bad.
W: How have you been spending your time?

W: Great!

W: I can see it’s good for you. What is your company get out of this?
M: (3) Well, I still have all my old contacts at work, so I know who to contact to get something done. The company gets flexibility, too. Once the job’s over, that’s it. I’m not on their books any more.
