My last year in the Army lasted a little over a century. What did Ingwe look like back then? Probably lost sight of him when they stormed the castle.
I am..........disturbed.

You can easily vote your way in to Socialism; but you'll have to shoot your way out.

Almost 15 years, not that I love it. Every dog has its fleas, and at least I know the fleas on this dog

24 years for one crew, histerically speaking we were the lowest paid in the US at that type of job. Yes you read that right. Sarcasm at it's height, or lowest if you wish. I don't care what you call it or me as long as you call me for dinner. I don't miss a meal. Be well, RZ.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. Winston Churchill.

My Grandfather, who recently passed away, got a job at 16 at the RC Musson Rubber Co. in Akron OH at 16 years old working the loading docks. In 1942, he took a leave of absence to join the USMC. He fought in the Pacific Theater, later returning in 1946 to the loading dock at RC Musson Rubber Co. 43 years later, he retired as the General Manager of the company. He earned enough stake in the company to have a 49% ownership. I remember him saying, that in the mid 50's, he was given 5 days of paid vacation each year, which was (in his opinion) unheard of, and a great benefit.
A different generation for sure.
Me personally, 14 years in the military (Army, then Air Force), was the longest. Since then, 8 years at one civilian company followed by 1 year and counting...
Intellectual honesty is the most important character trait in human beings.

Im in my 21st year working with the same group. We have been three different companies due to mergers. No changes in the last 12 years. 8 years since anyone left or anyone new hired. All friends on a personal level and we do our own thing. Help each other when needed and stay out of each others faces when not. Really good situation.
Life can be rough on us dreamers.
