Reminds me of a friend's father - in his early 80s he was still working part-time, as a driver for one of the local medical labs. Going all over town, picking up specimens and dropping off supplies.
His kids were concerned about him spending so much time behind the wheel in heavy traffic areas, on the highways, etc. They gently suggested that maybe he could find another type of job if he still wanted to work. He asked what they had in mind. Someone mentioned applying to be a greeter at the new Wal-Mart opening up nearby.
He was shocked and insulted because, as he said, "that's for old people!"
