It's not every day that someone who has been with a workplace for over 44 years retires and is congratulated for her time.
Debbie Dawson started working at Coles on November 19, 1979. She started in the fruit and vegetable department.
"I loved fruit and veg. I worked in other areas but loved fruit and veg," she said.
Debbie eventually became part of the service team, an area that she also loved.
"It's so nice to greet people I have seen coming into the store for years."
On Saturday, June 22, 2024, Debbie officially retired.
"I will be spending time with family and friends and doing some travel," she said after being asked what she planned to do in retirement.
Dubbo Photo News wishes Debbie all the best in her retirement.
