Do I need a job?

I am always interested in local job opportunities that pass through Facebook. One just came through for a library clerk. I could do that and at $12 an hour the extra money would be nice. I flipped to the application to see what it was asking.Not bad until I got to the part that asked for the last seven years of employment. I got out my resume and saw that the last year I had a paid job was 2014. Well I suppose I could make it up, but they would no doubt check. Even though I have been writing and have offered books online I don't suppose that counts as a real job. Well then perhaps I should just go buy a lottery ticket if my services are no longer needed in the real world!
