What are some interesting jobs for a retired elementary school teacher?

Answer 1

I have burnt out and returned to education. The jobs I went into were banking (switchboard operator and teller), and a clerk at a hardware/lumber/plant... etc. store. I would first find what you enjoy and choose jobs that include those activities. Being a clerk at the hardware store really was enjoyable but I was involved in checking customers out, which included memorizing a ton of codes so I could ring out the correct lumber, feed or fertilizer. I also handled some special orders, and new shipments. My banking experience came in handy so I could have a steady schedule and I closed most of the time which included balancing all 3 to 5 drawers for the night. The challenge of keeping up and balancing are what made it fun. The customers were incredible also. But I returned to education because this is where I feel I contribute best. It comes down to what you enjoy and making sure you find something that will fill that need. If I knew what you liked I may have more ideas.
