I like it and I do not have to do weekends, nights or holidays and the summer off is sweet. The majority of part time jobs around here in Indianapolis are the nights, weekends, holidays and a changing schedule and no summers off so I am grateful.

I plan to continue to sub until my health fails me which I'm in pretty good shape so not time soon will I be with out employment.

I net about $4000 a year.
Great combination!!

How did I get here. I swear, it was just yesterday that I was walking downtown, swinging a briefcase, all dolled up in a suit, getting cat calls from the construction workers!

JEEZ!
I'll still cat call you if you want.

No more worries about health insurance!
65 is a magic age for many reasons. Yes, Medicare gives you access to health care, a privilege not available to millions. In areas blessed with trains you can actually ride, reduced fares. And some professional organizations, free membership.
