Retired Navy Officer All At Sea On Finding New Jobs |
Q: I’m a recently retired Navy physical therapist. I spent most of my 30 years in big military hospitals, and now would like to travel. I feel too young (56) to go sit and vegetate in a retirement community. I’m looking for temporary or regular jobs in resorts or aboard cruise ships, so I can combine meaningful work and fun travel. I’m single and have a very good pension, so salary is not a big issue. What do you suggest?
A: If you’re a member of a PT professional association, check its website about job listings. Additionally, consider putting up a virtual shingle and advertise your history and qualifications through your own website. As a physical therapy professional, you could expand your working horizons to include consulting, training, convention speaking and other travel-related, income-producing services. |
