1. I am currently retired and unemployed, but seeking a position which would not require me to supervise or manage other employees. 2. I feel it gives me a little flexibility in work hours and responsibilities, while providing companionship to a senior citizen in need of services. 3. I went back to school at age 55 to become an Aesthetician. Being the oldest student in the class, graduating ( in spite of an injury which caused me to lose 3 mos out of class, but coming back and graduating WITH my class) and passing my State Boards to obtain my license. 4. I have worked over the last 40+ years, in various positions, in corporate America. I would like to be of assistance to someone who needs a little attention, and care, to make a difference in their life.
