I’ve been in the higher education sector for a while. Clocked up 30yrs earlier this year.
There was a lovely event yesterday where annual awards were announced and long serving staff recognised.
We have a social media team so of course an email arrived with an image to use.
@meandering Congratulations to you! 👏🏻
I only just rolled over my 7th year but there were an encouraging number of colleagues with similarly high numbers this year. It feels good to be involved in a career that isn’t fly-by-night.
@gregmoore thank you! I’m fortunate that my institution is big enough that I’ve been able to move through a few different positions but also small enough that we retain a nice community vibe. Makes a world of difference.
@meandering That really does make a big difference. Most of my family are university people and, even with all of their issues, they are still good places to work.
