Are we a bunch of oldies sitting there and waiting for our pension check ?

By the way I'm 65 now

"Does anyone working here?"

What's that mean?

Unemployment benefits, welfare checks, lawsuit settlements, lottery winnings....
We all have our own means.

I'd like to know if I'm the only person here who's 65 years old and relaxing and surfing the internet that's It my friend.

Damn, you're old!

Marshall what do you mean? Am I to old to be part of this forum or what?

ROFL

Oh my gosh no, just having a little fun with you. I'm sure there are quite a few old farts on here.

Go west young man, there's gold in them there hills, the rush is not over.

You forgot alimony, blackmail, bounties, and workman's comp.

I have had the same question, ie who has the time during the day to spend time on this site.

I work in an office and do have opportunities to hop in  during the day.

My job allows me to play on the computer so i can check and see whats going on though out the day.

Male whore here.

Being Mr. Mom does have a few benefits  (coming to end shortly though)

I work in an office with a 'puter and can peep in a few times a day.

Emmo, we're in the same boat. How long you been doing this? Was part time initially but am now fulltime for almost a year. Three little kids. It's actually easier to be doing a regular job than handling the kids. I also handle the house as well as yardwork and snowblowing. Not to mention cooking. Looks like I'll be doing this another several years as the littlest one is only  19 months and kindergarten doesn't start until they're 5.

Ahh, OK, I wasn't sure what you were referring to but I am tired and it has been a long week.

Since you brought it up, apples and oranges Bill, there is a difference.

No, there isnt.

Dear Tradesman,
Welcome to the forum! 
All are welcome.........we are all different ages, and are on at different times. 
We are from all walks of life.....all different vocations.
I'm on all different times, my schedule as a firefighter varies greatly.
I know Will from La. is into his 70's.........Termy is in his 20's, or perhaps even younger.
We are generally very easy going and friendly, and try to be helpful.
Dispite what this thread looks like, they don't all go straight into the gutter..........

Stick around and enjoy, and contribute if you feel led to......

I work during the day, but as soon as I get home if I have no "honey do's " this is the first thing I do!

Your as young as you feel!!!! I'm 51 yrs young. Been rail roading for 31 of those!
Only laid off for 6 months during that time!

Welcome Tradesman100! By any chance, do you own an old Dodge van?

I'm 42 & work the graveyard shift for a communications company. I have lots of time to play at night! I also get paid to take a 2-3 hour nap! My days are either spent sleeping, rustling up (like that one Fred? ) or fixing some unwanted OPE or playing on here again!

Hi mrmom,

you have a PM

I am 60 and will be "retiring" in 2 months after 30 years of state employment. I'll be able to devote more time to our market garden business and will try to get a part time winter job. My wife is nervous about me being around.
