I'm not sure if they do it anymore as its prob all electronic by now, but MLB used to hire people to go to baseball games and score each game live for the app. That would be an amaze job too.

unpaid intern at a new company i start called "visiting all the national parks and putting stuff on my rooftop cargo rack"
-
Lot of cheaters in this thread. I know you have FU money now, but you have to follow the rules. Sit on your fat ass all day and professional roller coaster rider aren't jobs. Maybe there are professional roller coaster riders, but you know what I mean. :curse:

I want to work for Sandstone and mocat. If they aren’t hiring then part time help for a trail race organizer and part time labor at a brewery.
-
Thoroughbred farm. Buy a dozen fillies and breed them. Also, buy more land.

Second this. And any youth sports in general. I'd love to have FU money and just take over/start my own organization, build a facility, not charge fees, etc. Coaching kids 10-12 yo range is the sweet spot imo.
-

And this. Just have a vagabond lifestyle in general. If I wasn't married w/ kids that's what I'd be doing anyway. Probably is my more natural lifestyle tbh.
-
Call sporting events. Radio pbp. Be the PA guy. Any of it. Moonlight as a sportswriter.

Mostly all the crap I already do now as much as I can, except I'd be rich.

I like this one. Having a part time gig at a good music venue would be pretty cool.

This and it'd be a bar like the one that Billy Bob Thornton wrecks/pretends to work at in Bad Santa.

Being a courier or meter reader seems like a really relaxing job.
-
Mow lawns (agree with OP on riders only)
Flip houses (let my daughter do all the stuff that HG tv ladies do, and I just work on demo day and cut checks to sub contractors rest of the time)
Junior College teacher in business or MIS curriculum, or a HS teaching job in economics/accounting/history/philosophy/sociology related courses.
Crypto coin mining (let my son do all of it and I just cut checks)

I did it in my early 20's and it's the only job I've ever had that I actually enjoyed. Spend most of your time alone just listening to the radio in the car. The hospital I worked for had lots of retired dudes that would work like 3-4 hours a few times a week.
-
Working at a golf course or a substitute teacher. If I had FU money I wouldn't want a full time job, just something to do for 10-20 hrs a week.
I played golf with a random 70 year old at St Andrews (OP not Europe) who was pretty good and knew the cart girls/marshal etc. Turns out he works like 5 hours a week washing carts or something then just plays golf for free all the time.
Being a hobby farmer like my dad is also a great gig.
-
Hobby farm and augment quail habitat on my farms.
Work pt at the post office. I'll get to see my neighbors mail :D

I think being a mailman would be a pretty sweet gig. You get your exercise every day too. I've had the same mailman for a while so I assume he knows the route and houses like the back of his hand. He seems happy as can be when I see him. He has his AirPods in just trotting along. Half the time he is talking to someone through the pods laughing. I prob wouldn't do it with FU money, but it seems pretty great. Crappy weather would be a bummer, I guess.

Sometimes the in-town mailmen have to do extra routes when their colleagues are sick or on vacation. Surge in packages around the holidays and toting all the amazon packages could be a pain. I was talking to a guy who does a rural route where Amazon delivers their own packages and he says it is just great.

Being a bartender can be stressful. No thanks, fellas.

I think being a mailman can also be stressful as evidenced by them constantly snapping and mass murdering their coworkers.

Had an older Karen mail lady for the longest time just a grump. Mailbox at my house is right by my front steps and in awkward spot so one day I drilled into front of our house and mounted a mailbox on the front of the house. Most houses in my neighborhood have them in that spot. I pulled the old one out. Letter from postmaster that I had 30 days to put the old one back and after that they would quit bringing me my mail. I waited until the 30th day and put the old one back.. I now have 2 mailboxes..(house is brick so its not like I'm just going to fill it in) well Karen must've retired and we haven't had the same mailperson each day of the week. Long story short pulled the old mailbox and now the mailbox is where I want it. Go cats

Open two restaurants:
1. breakfast and lunch place. will name it School Food. Will only serve the cafeteria food schools served Millenials and X'ers when in middle school and high school. Nostalgia at it's $4 crispito and school best.
2. Something that will def lose money because it will be small and I will only serve one meal for dinner, and it will only be what I want to cook. Maybe like a membership thing.
The first will print money, and the second will lose it.

Crispito. Those things were tasty but I shudder to think about how they manufactured the filling. We had the best school lunch ladies. Really masters of making lemonade out of lemons. They has some weird USDA surplus foods that they had to feed us. We should start a school lunch memories thread.
-
man I haven't thought of the word "crispito" in a long ass time. Pretty sure a bar and grill in my hometown had a cherry crispito as a desert item????
-
I loved crispitos but about 1 in 10 was the worst tasting thing ever.
-
I wouldn't get a job. I'd either keep doing what I'm doing or quit and live life on vacation. If I really wanted to work a crappy, high-stress job for low pay, then I'd already be doing that.

Crispitos would be Wednesday.
Monday would be chicken patty, super buttery rolls, and mashed potatoes with yellow gravy
Tues Salisbury steak
Thurs chili and cinnamon rolls
Friday rectangular pizza
Breakfast is the egg sandwiches or biscuits and gravy every day
-
You can get Taquitos at any Mexican restaurant these days and they're the same thing, guys.

Also, why do you guys like mowing so much? It kills my back and I had a friend lose a brother to a freak riding mower accident. There's nothing positive that can come from it.

Riding on a tiny car for an hour kills your back? Thoughts and prayers wacky.

Push mower, bro! Why would anyone who lives in the city need a riding mower unless you have Mahomes house?

I considered work at a ski resort. Maybe as a lift attendant or shuttle bus driver. Ultimately, I think I'd be a full time fund manager for a single investor. Myself.
-
I could see showing up to help out at a ski resort free of charge if I want to or something, but I'm not going to commit myself to any sort of regular schedule, take crap from customers, or listen to what the management has to say.

First Common and now your friend. Being in wack's world seems hazardous
If I had FU money I'd open my own shop and only take clients/matters that interest me.

I know we had a thread about this a few years ago, and I'm pretty sure you (intentionally or unintentionally) just stole one of my big ideas.

Maybe it was the same incident. Maybe Common was cutting across his friendly uncle's lawn, the friend/uncle swerved to miss him, rolled the mower, and got trapped underneath it, face down in a ditch. The coroner ruled the death a freak, rare drowning, but the cause was actually quite Common.

Dying by mower sounded terrible then and now it sounds even worse now. Woof! And that's kinda close to what happened. :frown:
-
more hometown stories - there was a kid a couple years younger than me whose mom or dad ran over him with a lawnmower when he was a toddler. he survived but it really mumped him up for life. Like it chopped up his face mostly. :frown:

ok thread back on track. What you buy your family? My fam owns their own homes so I think some kind of really dope trip with everything first class.

As far as I know there is a place in Rossville that sells the school lunch crispitos

Makes sense, statistically speaking. (lawn mowers, not Common)

Yeah, I never knew anyone personally who died in the ocean. That shits a blast!

That's why you stay in the super light area of the ocean. Jamaica had some badass spots right off the resort. :eye: :eye: I also broke one of my toes out there too hitting a rock tho, so you might have a point.
-

This reminds me of another one.
I would hire some nerds to design ocean versions of autonomous drones with super cool tools and that are recharged by motions of waves and stuff. These little guys would basically explore the areas we haven't explored yet and look for cool crap.

I'm literally working from bed right now, dinging docs on indeed. If I won the lottery, i'd probably just keep doing this. Go cats!
Love the youthful excitement about working. I'm old enough that fu money means eff the daily grind. Lottery win? Eff it all. Retire and see the world.

I'm sorry we are a bunch of Kansas kids conditioned to believe that everyone who retires at a reasonable age either immediately dies of a heart attack or goes back to work due to boredom.

Oh I was programmed the same way. I'm sure I'd find something to do after a couple years of traveling. Probably settle with a place in Kentucky and do something in the thoroughbred or saddlebred industry. I'd love a 100 acre spread with four board fences and my own horses.
