Still waiting for a need for an RN…. 😉 but willing to start parking cars.
Wish you had part time work locally in the retail fishing department field. Few days and nights a week and weekends here and there. Been 35+ years since working in clothing sales but could handle the fishing end easy. Including 101 and the like. I have medical insurance via the VA so don’t need any benefits. I retired early but still want to do something when not fishing or birding.
