Experience Works is a national, nonprofit organization offering job training, job placement, and work experience in community service organizations to mature workers over age 55.
Originally named Green Thumb, this organization was established in 1965 by President Lyndon Johnson (with encouragement from Lady Bird) to provide job placement for poor, rural farmers.
Since then, Experience Works has evolved to include a variety of programs designed to help older workers enter the workforce, find more challenging positions, change careers, or supplement their incomes.

Scheduled security is always an option; I know quite a few retired persons who work security desks in malls and some of the major buildings in town. Also, experienced housekeepers (either home or other institutions) are always in short supply. It depends on your own personal experience, though; my mom's retired, but she still runs a medical billing office on a part-time basis. Good luck.

Best job is learning to deal Black Jack. The pay's not great, but the tips are. You can work whenever you prefer, and there's lots of jobs out there.

Have you tried the AARP? They have a program to help older workers like yourself find employment in the community. Also recommend checking your county government's website because sometimes they will have a list of organizations helping seniors find employment.
