What do you do for a living ???

[resto]

Now retired.

Spent 38 years in the telco industry. Started as a phone installer, worked my way up to PBX, data circuits and terminals, circuit board repair, then finished in IP networking. Last dozen years wrote configuration files for switches, routers, firewalls, and commercial wifi on mostly Cisco gear. Had the pleasure of working with a lot of great people over the years and there's never a dull moment when you have to deal with the public...........

I took the concept of retirement seriously. This morning I felt like doing something productive, so I stayed in bed till the feeling passed.
