A colleague retires, maybe!

Joe has a proclivity towards proving people wrong.  He did that to me - almost effortlessly- a few years ago while we were in programming re-training class.  I was talking to him about an article I had read and scoffed at its premise that most people will have 4-6 careers in their working lifetime.  Joe dismissed my contention by simply pointing out that he himself was going on to his fourth career.  The proving people wrong business comes naturally to people like him who have done so much and studied even more. Now Joe has declared that this is the end of his working life, but one can never be sure.  He is a very curious person and something might come up that he might want to try. Like trucking!
