TBD

TBD on Ning

I'm retired. I get a little bored sometimes, but I really don't miss working.
Has anyone here ever had a steady full time job that they really liked? That they just couldn't wait to get too. I don't mean one day out of the month. I mean one that made you look forward to starting every day.
I enjoyed repairing radios. I didn't think it was more fun than playing the slots, but I did like it. Kind of. Then the Army decided that if I liked it there must be something wrong so they promoted me. Then I had to keep track of a bunch of other people repairing radios. Not as much fun.
I had a number of jobs that I could tolerate, but I can't remember one that I couldn't wait to get too.
I think my son knows more about life than I do. He said "When you have to do it, it isn't fun anymore. So, lets hear about all those really lovable jobs that we tbders have held.

Darroll, the Foestry job sounds like it had it's moments. But I bet traveling all over for the phone company had some good times in the mix. I have some great "war stories" about my travel to places like Panama, Turkey, Berlin, Viet Nam and others.
I actually have had very few jobs for a person of my age.
1. Clerk in a dry goods store- hated it
2. ditch digger- double hated it
3. lifeguard- loved it
4. Teacher, high school- loved it sometimes and hated it at others
5. motel clerk- I only lasted 4 days
6. Teaching graduate school- loved it
7. Retired- love it
Mud boy for bricklayers in college. $4.00 an hour and all the beer I could drink.
I got my youngest son a job as a hod carrier one time. It's a great story but would start a whole new discussion.
