Our library system has a large number of employees and I'm still somewhat new to it, so I can't be totally at fault for not knowing who's who. In all truth, I find it commendable for a person to stay at a job for a long time and see it through to retirement, especially if they still enjoy what they do. And who can turn down free food?
If you make it all the way to retirement, slick, I'll make sure I'm there with bells and a party hat on... and a poster sized blow-up of this cartoon, just to remind you why all those newbs you don't know are really there.
For me it was not a retirement party, but a birthday party for one of the board members who was turning 80. This happened during my first few weeks on the job, and I barely knew the names of a handful of regular employees, nevermind the higherups that no one ever sees. I was definitely the youngest one at the party. -Angie
