One thing I will say On Headon's behalf, I did not plan on retiring as early as I did...last time I was between jobs, after Republican crash of 2008 I busted my ass trying to find a good job..I sent out hundreds of resume' pounded on lots of doors...in this end stage capitalism shrinking economy it's getting harder and harder for us somewhat older people to get hired.
Look, I'll even do it again, right now, because IDGAF: John Reynolds. I've posted my Arizona State ID. Multiple screenshots with my real name, you can search the site and find 'em. John Reynolds. Hi. That's me.
It's even getting harder for fresh faced college grads to find good jobs, when I was coming up one of the old adages that was largely true, was "Just get a college degree in underwater basket weaving and the doors will open for you". is not so true anymore.
No, I can't. Because the nearest jobs in this area are in Winslow, which requires a commute, and a commute requires a motor vehicle, and I'm *legally blind* and thus ineligible for a driver's license, thus a car.
I got a hustle: Getting locals upgraded from Windows to Linux. I'm working that hustle as hard and as far as I can. But my lack of driver's license is a hard lock. So I'm geographically constrained to my own town. I can't "magic" my way out.
