I'm at 19 years, top 5 in seniority with hourly folks. I work in manufacturing and started 4 moths after they started. I'm 42 now and will probably surpass 40 years if the company is still around because highly doubt I will ever be able to retire. I'll be 63 when I reach 40 years, so I figure I'll be dead far before 70, so maybe I'll shoot for 45 years?
