Kind of off the subject a bit but amybe not. I remember back when I was working. When you finalyy reached 25 years you got a gift and cash. For 25 years you got $250, 30 years you got $300, you get the opicture. My husband and I both work at the same place and started the same day. That's how me met. So we both got that nice check. He is a very practical guy. If you get an extra amount of money, you just pout it in the bank and it goes to bills. But I said my $250 was MINE! If I wanted to get a round trip flight to Chicago, get off the plane walk around the airport and get back on and fly home then that's what I would do with mine. I did buy an excersize bike so I could hang my clothes on it and some other things. Unfortunatley I quit a few months shy of my 30 year anniversary. He put his $300 in the bank. Boring. He has no imagination. But this $250 again will be mine. I think I am going to put it toward having a nice wooden play set put up in our backyard for when the grandkids come.
