Today I reached 40 years with the same employer. Never thought or planned for it to happen. In fact I thought I'd have exited 5-6 years ago. It would actually be a longer tenure if they would give me credits for working summers and holidays while I was in College!

Guess I'll go out tonight and ride 40 miles and think about what in the heck I've done for the last 40 years. I'm not really sure I want to reflect back on all those years. I think I'd really like to be thinking about the bike rides and tours I have planned this summer!!

Who else has spent 40 years or more with the same employer? And yes mergers and acquisitions count and continued employment with the same firm.
