    Well they kind of already did, but I still need to babysit the silly machines because they like to be brats. I still needed to work freight though, I like that better anyway. It's just annoying having to watch the whiny machines while doing that.

    I used to drive limos. Apparently that job has already been taken over by robots.

    Where can I get a robot that sits around all day doing nothing. I'll take three.

    I know what you mean.  I'm now working only 3 days a week and I still have almost nothing to do, but I get paid a lot of money for not doing it!

    I do have a early morning cleaning job 6 days every two weeks. We work about 1-1/2 hours and the pay is good. It pays the mortgage and one utility.

    For now. I am wearing out and it is my only form of exercise. When I first started the job, I was doing it alone and then went to another part time job. Both were strenuous and may be one of the causes of my joint conditions. (Teacher salary sucked). I will try to continue for a few more years. Also, my wife was just diagnosed with a-fib today, which might hamper her ability to work hard...we don't know yet. Good thing I have two pensions, SS, free scripts and almost free health insurance.

    Well, sounds as though you're financially settled if you decide to retire.  Hope the A-fib is not debilitating.  I have it and take a blood thinner so that clots don't develop.  It hasn't stopped me from doing anything.

    I actually I am officially retired from the Navy and Teaching. So far, the a-fib hasn't affected her physically. The doc put her on eliquis and metoprolol. I take Metoprolol since I had a heart attack 13 years ago. I am addicted to it and if I stop taking it I will die.

    That's good to hear.  I take Eliquis also.  I guess taking Metoprolol and being addicted to it is better than the alternative, but not great.

    I MUST visit my aunt in sun city. I'll definitely stop by and try your talents. I am a good tipper, too.

    I was going to post a picture of a sex doll factory, but it's getting to where you can't tell the dolls from real women. Except of course that the dolls can't walk. Yet. But that's all they can't do.
