Remember about those jobs I hated? Periodically I get calls from theaters wondering if I'm available to hang a light, build a set, et cetera, et cetera.
It is so satisfying to say, "I'm retired."
It isn't quite so satisfying to stop myself from saying, "And I wouldn't work in tech theater again for a thousand dollars an hour, so don't ever call me again unless you want to pay me more than that."
But I do manage to stop myself, even if they call at ten o'clock at night, when my kids and wife are trying to sleep.
(I shoulda said it...)
