Annie Milner retires after 85 years at Dayton’s. You’ve got to read this story. This woman just retired from Dayton’s the local department store that eventually became the Target Corporation after 85 years of employment. No, not at 85, 85 years with the company! She’s decided to pack it in at 101. I didn’t think that happened anymore. I’m amazed that they let her stay. I guess it’s a tribute to the company. She sounds like she had a great time. It reminds me of a story I heard not long ago about a farmer who decided to stop bailing his own hay because he didn’t want to invest in those new fangled bailing machines that make the big round bails. Didn’t like the payoff time. He was 103!
I personally will retire about 2 seconds after I can financially swing it. Which will probably be sometime after my 100th birthday, given my current financial state.
