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.

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.

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

Lol

It’s even weirder when you have a meeting with someone who wasn’t born when you started working at the employer :-0

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.

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.

Gosh Bazo. Makes me feel like a newb after only 25 with mine! I'm not going to make 35 years, for sure. (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?

I'm guessing this was 1973 +/- a year
