FOR 30 YEARS 'UNRETIRES' HIM
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
Many employers ignore the fact that investing in the retention of skilled and reliable employees is one of the best business moves they could make. A 63-year-old programmer retired and the company they worked for asked for them back. The company said yes to all of his demands, like a 32-hour work week with the same compensation, because it realized how much company-specific knowledge he had. He was a COBOL programmer and the company’s clients were entire states in the US.
