Old guy ramble checked out a barber school yesterday. Wouldn't be bad retirement job to keep me busy. [View all]
So plan was i was gonna take union pension at 62 Ill be 59 two months yet since my wife passed not sure as running the road keeps me busy.
Yet Ive been kicking around idea you know why dont you just pull it at 62 as Ill have my pension my wifes two different pensions and SSI possibly.
And i always thought when i retire I'm gonna have stay busy so as I am social butterfly why not try barbering now i thought of this or been thinking of this as option for years.
And my barber new guy I found who thinks as we do politically mentioned that is where he got his start at this barber school. And if i choose to do it i can come and work for him under his supervision.
So yesterday i discovered it is a 12 month program 08:00 to 13:00 Monday to Friday full time i think nine months if i just choose mens haircuts yet if i choose womens as well 12 months why not.
And you know what i would do id donate my services to the ladies and men at my moms nursing home maybe one day a week.
Yet my barber is doing maybe thirty cuts a day at $20 a head plus tip. Im thinking one two three days week definitely Saturdays not a bad racket.
Ive been told also i automatically have a position in retirement to be on staff as instructor at local tech college to teach truck driving. But Id end up telling the students go do something else waste of your money as self driving trucks are soon to be the norm.
And like I told my friend who runs program great guy old teamster. What will I teach them bad habits after 40+ years.
