Sabbatical for All and a Bolt Organizer
Bill Hall argues for broad mid life sabbaticals to reorganize home life and prepare for retirement. He laments lack of meaningful time off, notes professors' paid sabbaticals, mocks Mao Zedong’s forced farm track, and urges six months off to sort tools, books, and videos before aging work fades. He shares personal chaos finding bolts and imagines a bolt sabbatical.
