Now, more than 5 years later, and out of the circles of surveying, was SAMS, now defunct, I'm 50, and wonder what jobs I can find employment. I'm under the gun now, I've got to produce, yet my memory is failing as most who are over 50 can attest, am I wrong?

What shall I aim for with limited education, that from my past which is, or has become, OBSOLETE!
