Are there any good jobs for retirees?

i baby sat my grandson 35'00 a week from 6'30 til 2 then went to a day care from7 til 2'30 for 50'00 a week-i had to quit because the dr gave me the wrong pill and i was sick for 3 months--but i cussed her real good but they always blame it on the nurse
 

To answer the OP - - There probably are (good jobs for retirees) but I want none of them. Retired a 58 and have managed to reach 86 without the need for work, whether to fill empty time or the need for additional funds.

We've managed to squeak along financially and we've always enjoyed our leisure time and sometimes wish we had more of it. Maybe if I was alone without family nearby I'd see it differently.

When it comes to choices, "To each his own"

I retired about a year ago from my full time job as a teacher. however i get bored sometimes and would like to know what kind of work is out there that’s fun, safe, and pays reasonably well.

Thanks :)

Would your prior job as a teacher make it possible to tutor ?
 

I took a seasonal job after I retired from my full time job. I worked full time for 6 months and then it was time to go do what we wanted to do.
We hitched up our travel trailer and went off to see the country. That was far better than any part time job. The seasonal job was with the AAA motor club in St Petersburg FL.

I was dealing with the same sort of boredom after I retired from my lifelong job, but now I am newly employed as a Walmart greeter. It might not pay great, but it's decent enough and it's a fairly interesting job. As long as you're friendly, helpful, and know how to smile, you're qualified. Pain-free and a great way to kill free time.

But you have to stand up the whole time, correct?
