JBWhat is your ideal next job?
As some of us come within the horizon for retirement, we can wonder just what would be that next ideal job.
For me, I would have to be near a beach and blue, blue water. Turns out there is an opening in Australia.
Details.So, what is your ideal next job?

JASYou couldn't go wrong with Australia. A magnificent country.
Ideally, taking it easy on some lesser known island in the Carribean. Practically, working in the tourist industry somewhere in the Rockies.

JASI suppose that is more esteemed that a stop-and rob-clerk! Less free food but all the movies you could want!

JB"Video" store clerk. Really? Have you been to Blockbuster lately? Video rentals are dying. Libraries are giving away VHS tapes. It's all about internet streaming of movies now, baby. Check out Netflix. Best way ever to get movies.

Andrea WI'm thinking something with lots of authority, no oversight, and no responsibility. Think Obama has any czar appointments left for me?

SAProsecutorVice President Cheney already has a replacement Andrea. JB, David didn't mean a video store clerk at Blockbuster, but perhaps an establishment with a sign on the door saying must be over 18 to enter.

John TalleyNext time I want something where I can whole heartedly give 100%...... every week!
Say, 20% on Monday, 25% on Tuesday, 30% on Wednesday, 15% on Thursday and check mail and a round of golf on Friday.
And, if need be, I could save a little for the weekends. LOL

So, your running for a judicial position right?

LTAbout every 2-3 years I get a hankering to sell off everything I own and move to Thailand (since the food's better there than in the Caribbean or Australia) to be a divemaster for a while.
It usually comes up most strongly when the defense is about to start their case in chief.

A.P. MerillatWrite books and play music and make tens of dollars a year. Maybe open a Verizon kiosk at the parking lot of the Polunsky Unit.

GGI'm hoping that Brumley and AP will let me be their guitar tech. I'll tune 'em, carry 'em and keep those two out of trouble, which is akin to a full time job.
I do refuse to do any banjo tuning, as I believe that term is redundant.
Hopefully, they'll play music in a mountainous or seaside area, where I can fish alot.
That Verizon kiosk at Polunsky sounds like a good idea. I hear that some inmates have designed new cell phone holsters.

jwsI want to open a small dive resort/B&B. Maybe Lisa can come be the divemaster at my resort!

JohnRCan I be your bartender? I always wanted to be a bartender. That was my plan if I flunked the bar exam, to run away from my student loans and tend bar on an island somewhere . . .
