Friends...........
I will shortly be the ripe age of 64.
I have worked nearly all my life within an engineering design environment. Specifically the electrical/instrumentation petro-chemical industries such as oil exploration, pharmaceuticals and nuclear power generation.
Sounds quite grand, but I can assure you it can be very mundane and repetitive - just like most jobs.
Any ways, I would now like to run down to do something local for the last few years of my working life.
I have looked through a few job sites but nothing jumps out at me.
I still need a small income, so charity work is not an option.
Does anyone know of a slot somewhere that might suit a mentally active intelligent (?) individual.
I can turn my hand to most things and am not afraid of hard work, early starts / late finishes and subject to the limitations of a 63.5 year old body, can cope with most things.
All I really seek is something within commuting distance of home (Orpington, Kent).
Any suggestions ? ? ?
Or am I beating my head against the brick wall competing against younger, fitter models ? ?
Thank you for your time.
