PO1 John Weaver5993686<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Good morning. I am considering a new career to keep me pumped up as I start to reach my top potential in employment. I retired from the US NAVY Oct 2005 and have continued to work since then. I am an empty nester and looking to find a new career to take me to the finish line in about 5 to 6 years. I'm presently working as a Workers Compensation Specialist and love it however due to the job similarities on almost each case, I find myself wanting more challenges in a career and would love to hear some ideas my brothers and sisters in arms may have?What would be a challenging career choice for my final 5 to 6 years prior to retirement?2020-06-11T07:50:39-04:00PO1 John Weaver5993686<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Good morning.
