Best Title for Being Retired?

[papadad111]

Chief Overlord of the Death Star was what my buddy put on his business card title when the boss said to pick any title he wanted ( the company, while a mega corp, was not big on titles....Everyone had 8x7 cubes, parked in the same lot and ate the same overpriced Aramark food in the cafeteria.)

DW just advised the the term sundowner has an alternative meaning these days, referring to Alzheimer's patients whose symptoms get worse around sundown.

Drunken layabout...

I changed my "title" on linkedin to "wafer bitch". Not planning on looking for another j*b anyway.

Yep, that is the only meaning I knew. A local very nice-looking 55+ development has the unfortunate name "Sundown Ridge."

The original term is Australian - during the Depression migrant workers would travel from farm to farm. Farmers generally rewarded these swagmen with a meal or two and a place to sleep in return for some menial labor. Sundowner was a distasteful term for the swagman who arrived just before dinner (at sundown), when the days work was done. Due to the hard times, most farmers gave the sundowner a meal and a place to sleep anyway, plus a loathing glance as they left the next morning.

So I guess Sundowner Limited would be a poor choice of titles.

I always like to tell people I'm a bum.

Maybe not "always" for me, but I have sometimes used this one LOL!

I told one of my favorite now former coworkers that my new job is Director of cat box maintenance.

How about "Outsourced"?

My dad is a "Retired Consultant" except for the two years when he failed to take a step backwards when asked to volunteer and wound up as the president of his local symphony. Happily, they doubled his salary from $0 to 2x$0.

the title to a house?

Actually I have used, semi retired porn star or gainfully unemployed. Needless to say the wife doesn't see the humor in the first response.

Why would you semi-retire from the porn star profession?
Did you simply get tired of the same old grind day-after-day?

Why would you semi-retire from the porn star profession?

1) To give those gray hairs a chance to straighten (or curl).
2) To give other body parts a chance to recover.
3) To allow the religious freaks to find and swarm you.
4) How much money do you really need to retired.
5) OK, I goota get a bit somehow
