Well I got my 10 year service plaque when I had been there 17 years and just got my 20 year service plaque and have been there over 23 years.
Funny how my new boss who’s been there only 12 months made a big deal about how lucky I was and special to have a “Assistant Secretary” (that was less than a month new to the department) present my 20 year service award.
I had fun in telling her the Secretary actually presented my “ Secretary Award” a month before she started.
