I was hired at 50 to work in Professional
Development Programs (PDP) as a clerk in Sunnyvale. We had training programs
for suppliers and managers. Refreshments were served at the classes, so I
developed a recycling program, sold the aluminum cans and used the money to
have holiday parties (Christmas and Thanksgiving). We also raced cars outdoors with
hot dog parties. We had such a nice camaraderie. I have it all on tape, and I would
like it to be in the Lockheed Martin archives. It was the best job I ever had.
We were so connected, like family. I have
such fond memories of my time at Lockheed Missiles and Space Company, plus I
get a pension. It’s not much, but it is very much appreciated.
