Nellers May 2020 2:28pm, 18 May 2020 36,277 posts	Quote Pin Nellers That takes some doing these days Bazo. Well done or commiserations? Take whichever works for you.;-) I was 3 in 73. Any photos that might exist are under a sideboard at mums' house. I might have to search them out when I'm eventually allowed back there.

Eynsham Red May 2020 2:40pm, 18 May 2020 5,853 posts	Quote Pin Eynsham Red I’ve worked at Oxford Airport since 1975. Had my original employer not closed down in 2008 I’d probably still be with them. As it turned out I was able to get a job next door with Airbus, so no change to my journey.
HappyG(rrr) May 2020 2:57pm, 18 May 2020 34,827 posts	Quote Pin HappyG(rrr) I had fewer months with your employer than you had years Bazo (21 months?) However, I may be back to top it up some time (promise? threat?!) G
Bazoaxe May 2020 3:27pm, 18 May 2020 16,452 posts	Quote Pin Bazoaxe Lol It’s even weirder when you have a meeting with someone who wasn’t born when you started working at the employer It is strange though as it’s the same employer in theory but it’s nothing like the life assurance and endowments business I joined. I only took this job as it was the first offer I got and though it would do until I worked out what I wanted to do.
Nellers May 2020 4:03pm, 18 May 2020 36,278 posts	Quote Pin Nellers I'm in general, not Life, Bazo. I did exactly the same when I finished my A Levels. Get a job while I work out the future. I've had 2 years, 19 years, 9 years and 4 months into the latest employer, though, so you're definitely beating my record. I've worked for this latest lot for longer at my dining table than in their office now.

(Well, I sure hope not!) I converted my 25 year bonus into a greenhouse. Do you get anything to look forward to if you stay there another year?
