life guard? like at some stupid pool where kids are always peeing in the water? screw that. Go big or go home. Get a job as a river guide. (or as a driver for a raft company). As a guide you get to run a river everyday with a new crew of characters. As a driver you drop people off, and then go chill out at the river until they float up at the take-out.

It's like being a life guard, except it's way, way better.
