HOW many years are you planning to work at your current company?
While you are still thinking about it, a 100-year-old madala has broken the record for working over 80 years at the same company.
Walter Orthmann, from Brazil, has been working at the same company for 84 years and nine days, as verified on 6 January.
As a result, Orthmann has become an official Guinness World Records title holder for the longest career in the same company.
It is reported that when he was 15 years old, Orthmann started working as a shipping assistant at a textile company in Santa Catarina.
“Shortly thereafter, he was promoted to a position in sales. Then he became a successful sales manager,” the article read.
On 19 April, Orthmann turned 100 years old and celebrated with his family, friends and co-workers.
“I don’t do much planning nor care much about tomorrow. All I care about is that tomorrow will be another day in which I will wake up, get up, exercise and go to work. You need to get busy with the present, not the past or future. Here and now is what counts. So, let’s go to work!” Orthmann said.
