And all twenty of those years years were with the same wife (no cumulative yrs here). :D

Last month was thirty at work, this month it's married for twenty. I've come to the conclusion that I'm getting flippin old. :o

    I think the biggest secret in both my marriage and career longevity is I hated just dating, and as much as I hated dating, I hated job shopping even more.

    It's the bird in hand thing. :p

    Oh, and since Mrs Rat knows the combo to the gun box and trigger locks, I'll pass on the bells. But thanks anyway. :o

    You're also flippin consistant. Very impressive. Congrats. I hope you have many more years with a successful marriage and many less years 'til the day you retire, that is if you want to retire. If you love your job, I'm impressed again. :D

    Congrats to you too!

    If you love your job, I'm impressed again.

    I like what I do (some people think I have the best job in the company), and that makes it easier to get up in the morning. But when it's time, I won't have a hard time leaving.
