Mid-life Career Change
« on: September 02, 2011, 07:02:35 AM »
It can be a headache for many out there in the workforce.

Chuck Norris can pick oranges from an apple tree and make the best lemonade in the world. Every morning when you wake up, swallow a live toad. Nothing worse can happen to you for the rest of the day. They say money can't buy happiness. I would like the opportunity to find out. Why be serious?

I am 45. Looking for an extra job in the winter. Target: ship's cook in the N-Atlantic. Done it before, will do again.
The job sort of sucks, and the shift goes from 5 am to 9:30 pm or so.
But....very well paid.
Any alternative ideas?

p.s. I have had quite many jobs. One was here, I am the one rolling into the ditch at 1:28 or so.

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)
