A 100-year-old man set a Guinness World Record in 2022 for working at the same company for a whopping 84 years.
As you sit at your desk of your office job staring out of the window and then at the clock, dreaming of the moment the hand strikes half past five and you can run to your nearest bar to see in the weekend, imagine you get stuck in a Groundhog Day of doing this day, on repeat, for a whopping 84 years.
Panicking? Well, maybe you should be thinking of a career change, because one man has proven it is possible to love your job so much you stick to it for your entire life.
In 2022, aged an impressive 100 years old at the time, Walter Orthmann from the small town of Brusque in Santa Catarina, Brazil broke a Guinness World Record.
On January 6 2022, it was verified Orthmann had been working at the same company for 84 years – and nine days, to be exact – first beginning his work at the company on January 17 1938.
