Default What to do...

Well, Ms Lasgne is pressuring me to get a job so that she doesn't have to deal with me all day long at home. I've been retired since December from a lucrative communications engineering position but she's already tired of me.

What does everyone think I should do for a hobby job?

I've considered the following so far:
WallMart Greater
P/T driving instructor for teenagers
Web tester
Police Officer
Fireman
Fat Farm trainer
Community College Practical Learning Instructor

How about a S2000 event coordinator? And becoming a race track god?

I can safely assume that you are a car nut and you could pursue your passion with autos.

You've also mentioned building car body parts... maybe start your own business producing them?

Yeah, I'm, already producing parts, but that doesn't get me out of the house...

S2000 event coordinator... I didn't know there was a paying job to do that...

Spend your free time on more ink! Between what you are spending on your car, houses, and tatts, you will run out eventually! heh!

HAH! Mr. July... I'll have to consider that...

Half the officers on the island here are convicts so I'll fit right in...

I don't know how much research you have done already regarding police or fire work. But, I know some people in the biz for both industries if you need to talk to them. It took them a number of years to get in and some of them are still working on it.

But I am sure a there are a number of things you can do as a young retiree. You are definitely in a unique postion. Just make sure you choose something you like to do. (that should be a no-brainer)

Of course, I would love to see you get into the autobiz... you can be a contact for me!
