I had a friend who worked there after a full career as an
electrician. He went
because he enjoyed it and the extra income helped him out as well.
He didn't
*have* to work.

I knew a guy who retired from contracting and worked PT at a local HD,
mostly setting up and teaching classes. This was a few years ago, but
as I recall, he got about $18-$19 an hour, which isn't bad money in
this area (or a lot of others). He didn't have to work either, but
found the extra money helpful.
