My office is having a pot-luck luncheon for my retirement......
I didn't want anything, they talked me into a pot luck lunch.....I'm sure I'll get some award and I'll be so embarrassed. It's been 32 years of smiling.....and quite frankly I'm sick of it. So I'm retiring tomorrow. :)

1. Congratulations on the retirement!
Don't be embarrassed, it's cool that they are doing something for you. It could have been worse and instead of a pot luck you could have received a pink slip..lol.

Have fun. I am a little jealous it isn't me retiring. :)

2. I can understand that, MsUSA
On the other hand, it is a nicer send off than Scooter Libby got.

Enjoy your retirement.

32 years at the same place :wow:

4. Well it's been 32 years, but 3 different units, I work, or should
say worked for the State of Wisconsin, and had 3 different jobs but a total of 32 years.
