Alright, so being a Green Lantern doesn't pay the bills.
Not like I have a lot of expenses, per se. I mean, the League provides optional room and board. But I can hardly maintain a presence in Coast City if I live on the moon. I can hardly take Ari on a date if I ask her to cover it all with her tip money.
I've been living off my savings. But it won't last forever. And since the Guardians have decided to reform the Corps, without my help... well, my schedule isn't going to be quite as full as I thought it might have been.
I've tried other jobs. None of them last long. I've got to fly.
But I'm not sure it's a good idea to head back into the military. Schedules can conflict too much with my Lantern duties.
I need to be in the air. And no, an airline pilot won't be for me. Or a flight instructor.
There's an obvious one. When I first returned, I was offered a job. I turned it down, but perhaps it's still open.
I didn't want to take it at first. I mean... I'd be working with Carol again. And she's married now. Happily. And I didn't think I'd be able to take the job and face that every day. As happy as I am for her.
But now? With Ari back in the picture... well, somehow, it just gets a little easier.
A phone call later... and Hal Jordan is once again a test pilot for Ferris Aircraft.
