So just because someone retires from teaching, that person stops being a teacher?  Or a doctor stops being a doctor on the day of retirement?  That's an interesting viewpoint.  I know many (to use your word) people who consider their jobs to be vocations; others do not.  Those who do may stop working for pay as a teacher,or doctor, or, yes, even a lawyer.  But they don't stop being teacher, doctor, or whatever else they are.  I think that it is presumptuous for others to make assumptions about the nature of a calling that someone may have from God.
