We were finishing up the packing today, and someone commented on a thick folder of historical documentation going back three years.
Three years? Three whole years? I scoffed.
One of my co-workers said "I saw stuff Nic was throwing away, and the pages were yellow!" That led to a discussion of how I'd been accumulating crap since I started in January of 1993.
The IT guy in the group looked like his eyes were going to pop out of his head. "You've been here almost 12 years?"
"Yes," I said. "And do me a favor; don't tell me you were still in high school in 1993." (I hate it when they do that. And the first one who tells me it was junior high will get smacked into next week.)
"No," he said. "It's just that I've never been anywhere more than two years, and every company I've worked for has gone out of business in three or four years."
