You may think that you’ve been employed for a very long time and some days it may feel like forever.  But consider the work life of America’s oldest worker. Mildred Heath of Nebraska is 100 years old and has recently been selected by Experience Works as America’s oldest worker for 2008. She started working in the newspaper business at 15 and has been part of that business for the last 85 years. She continues to work 30 hours per week as a society news reporter, rides to work on her scooter and has no plans to retire. There’s no word on what she thinks of the recent economic downturn and its effect on 401k plans.
