Its not too late to become a lighthouse operator! British Columbia is desperate for them, even the CBC (Canadian Public Broadcaster) was basically advertising for them to try to drum up willing workers. https://www.cbc.ca/radio/thecurrent/looking-for-lighthouse-keepers-1.7085280
Wait really? Because I'll move over to BC in a fucking heartbeat. Fuck Ontario.
Wait. That article talks about Newfie lighthouse keepers. I'm newfie. GIMME!
If you don't follow-through and become a lighthouse keeper, I'm going to be pissed.
I mean I have literally nothing else to do with my life, no marketable skills, and if I disappear in a wash from the ocean then no ones gonna really miss me so fuck it. I'm signing up.
Good. Post pictures!
I will miss the Star Trek memes, friend.
I can probably get an internet connection out there
I meant if you disappeared in a wash from the ocean.
I stand by my answer. Aquaman got wifi last week
We will miss the updates and AMA from a lighthouse operator.
Remindme! in 1 year. Does this work?
!Remindme I think the bang comes first?
I think they try to avoid sending the chronically depressed to run the lighthouses. Maybe you should try air traffic control.
A couple years ago they were looking for a new lighthouse keeper in the SF bay https://ebls.org/about/keepers-search-innkeeper/ but it looks like they filled the position.
However this lighthouse includes a B&B and is in the bay surrounded by millions of people so maybe not quite what you were looking for.
