Gotta Tip Your Cap To This 101-Year-Old Coot Who Has Been Working The Same Job For The Past 73 Years

NJ – Herman “Hy” Goldman turned 101 this weekend and won’t quit after 73 years working at the same New Jersey job. Goldman still shows up four days a week at light fixtures company Capitol Lighting in East Hanover. His co-workers celebrated his birthday with him on Monday. Aside from a brief absence to serve in the U.S. Army in World War II, Goldman has worked at Capitol Lighting since 1941. The store says he was first hired to sell items and stock and clean the displays. Co-worker Sandy Ronco says Goldman now specializes in rebuilding items that were damaged or unusable. Goldman lives nearby and still drives himself to work in a 1999 Ford Contour.

Hy you old sailor you!

I’ve been fired from more full-time jobs in a month than Herman Goldman’s had in a lifetime. Most normal people want to waltz out after taking a dump on their bossman’s desk through 73 days and here’s Herman bringing in the lunch pail for 73 years. Can you imagine doing anything day in and day out for that long? Absolutely impossible with the attention span of today’s generations. Anything and everything loses it’s luster. I LOVE playing Mario Kart but after 4 hours it gets a ‘fuck it’ after winning becomes monotonous. Even blowjobs get mundane if it’s from the same toothy hooch on a regular basis. And here’s Herman still replacing light bulbs every single day with what I think is a smile on his face. Loving life even though I guarantee it takes him 2 hours to drive the 2 miles to work and it’s a toss up whether he falls asleep or shits himself every time he sits down.

Here’s to another 73 hours years, Hy.
