I was a medical transcriber for five years, mainframe programmer for
twenty-five, owned several coffee shops in commuter train stations
(not a part of the state program) and have worked as an independent
living coordinator at a local Center for Independent Living for eight
years next Friday. When the CIL job goes away, as I expect it to in
the next several months I will try to find something new. I'm old
enough but not ready for 24x7 retirement.
