 <<*What* is Harry going to do in the Muggle world without his powers?  
 Flip hamburgers?  He hasn't even been to a Muggle school since he
 was 10 years old.  Nor can I see him taking Filch's old job.  And I
 still don't see why his magic should die;  it's a part of who he
 is.  Losing his magic would just seem as arbitrary as, say, losing
 his power of speech.>>

Are you saying mute people are doomed to be unhappy or something like that. 
Magic is a part of Harry, else it wouldn't be much of be a sacrifice, but 
Harry should be able to be Harry with or without magic.

Plot reasons and so? I felt so bad for Ged when he lose magic in Earthsea 3, 
but then I loved him the same in the fourth book. I discovered behind the 
magic there was a fantastic human being. Harry's mood might even be better, 
who knows.

He could work at Rosmerta's.
