AC propulsion provides competitive compensation including medical & dental insurance benefits, 401(K) and paid time off.

Yikes, that looks like work. I am retired and do many of the same things, sometimes 14 hours a day. The only difference is that I do them when I want, how I want and only if I want to. LOL
