A cropduster in the Midwest. It's not really what it used to be, with turbines and 1000-gallon hoppers of stuff that can be sprayed from high altitudes (as high as 10 feet!), but somewhere there's got to be a guy running an operation with a half-dozen Pawnees (and another half-dozen in pieces that he uses for parts), where I can fly in the mornings and wrench in the afternoons. And on weekends, I can be that heavyset older woman who sits in the diner drinking coffee. Maybe when I retire. Tags: careers, jobs, writer's block
