    My dream job? Probably my previous job at Providence, except as a day position as well. Of course, what Wilson has in store for me remains to be seen, I may find I like it here just as well. I only have one day of orientation under my belt, but what I've seen so far is pretty promising, even though it's definitely outside my comfort zone, having been a local driver up until about a month ago.

    If the day ever comes that I can't drive any more, my "other" dream job would involve doing internet research, ideally from home... does anyone do anything like that?

    I'm also starting to look forward to retirement as well, although that's still quite a ways off.

    I’m glad it’s working out for you, it was definitely not for me. At my age, and with my medical history of heat stroke (about 15 trips to the hospital going back to 1992), I’ll leave it to the younger/healthier set.
