Actually no wouldn't like his job.
I boat for pleasure not for a living.

Same reason Inscuba Dive for fun and don't teach.

I like my hobbies to give me a break from work.

As soon as I retire from the current one, that will be just the sort of thing to keep me amused. Quite happily step into that! :)

I decided at the weekend that when I retire I'm going to take a part time job on the Torquay to Dartmouth ferry.

I will be quite happy ordering holiday makers around, taking their money, and watching the world float by.

Who ever gets in first just needs to 'create' a vacancy for the other....I'm sure there are many ways to 'create' a vacancy. ;)
