Apple PodcastsSpotify

May 13, 2026

Retirement in fleet is kind of a funny thing. Officially, people leave. There’s a party, a plaque, the speeches, and the “you finally made it” comments.

In this episode of The Chatty Chassis, Lauren Fletcher digs into why fleet doesn’t really do retirement the same way other industries do, and why so many professionals end up finding a second act instead of a clean break.

Because in fleet, people don’t just work in the industry.

They become part of it.
