I am retired

Order entry, customer liaison, dispatch of orders Arranging of transport Arranging of meetings and flights Got on very well with co-workers Entering stock counts on Sage and balancing stock on system with stock at the depots. Most challenging aspect of the job was to arrange transport to customers all over South Africa. It was like arranging a milk train - stopping at every destination along the route. You had to co-ordinate the routes in order to save on transport costs.

Pros: Great CEO and Managers who assisted you in every aspect of your work. Very competitive salaries and no discrimination between men, women and ethnic groups. One big, happy family. It was awesome to work for them
Cons: There were no cons as far as I am concerned.

Retirement is overrated

I do like challenges and feel that Companies should review their retirement policies. As a retiree myself i feel that I have still a lot of work energy. I prefer to work under pressure and with deadlines. Being at home makes me feel incomplete as there are no urgency.

Pros: Working in a Corporate environment gave me so much confidence as a person. Sometimes you can get lost within a Corporate environment but Glencore gave me the freedom to work as individual.
Cons: Retirement policy to retire at age of 63.
