Never let your age to limit your option, you will not be satisfied to work as a cashier or a busboy if you were in a professional role pre-retirement.
Seek a job which will be flexible to your timing in which you can use all your previous experience and knowledge.

Always consult a professional career counsellor or financial advisor as working after retirement can bring a unique set of financial and legal complications.
