Default employment

Not everyone who comes here wants to "retire". I don't have to work, but enjoy working and the great feeling of productivity and vitality that brings. I moved here because my husband wanted the lifestyle that TV offers. We can afford the expense of living here without my income. I've done volunteer work in the past, but it just doesn't bring the same level of satisfaction to me as that daily contribution to the workforce. It isn't always about the money for many people. I just hope that I am being judged by my skill and ability and not by my age when I apply for a job.....especially in a community that should be all about valuing "seniors".
