Hey! So for background, I just had my surgery yesterday and as my jobs in a ski instructor and ski shop are leaving as the snow melts, I am left unemployed. Last year, I did an internship, so that I could have a fun and free final summer before my first year of college. However, recovery for most activities is late july/august. Anyone got any fun jobs that don’t require a lot of mobility/still let you get involved in biking or outdoors? Or really any other suggestions? It could even involve working from home/flexible schedule

I just got my ACL worked on and I'll be working in a fly shop this summer. See if there's an outdoor shop that needs help working the cash register or something like that? I'm doing bookings and tying flies at my shop.

This is a good idea, I like small companies and stuff so that might be a cool plan. Good luck on recovery!

Yeah, it doesn't hurt to ask around places. When I initially tore it I was working in a ski shop and they worked with me pretty well, the fly shop has been awesome with me post surgery. Lots of mom and pop shops can be accommodating! The ski/bike shop I worked at years ago had at least one person with an ACL recovery every year.
