Grandma 96 in the United Kingdom insists that there is no plan to retire

According to the British "Mirror" report, an old man who is considered to be the oldest clerk in the UK still works three times a week at the age of 96 and said that he has no plan to retire. Irene Astbury opened a pet food shop in March 1981 in McClesfield in Chandeng, and worked here for more than 40 years. She said that she likes to stay in the store, stand behind the cash register to mark the price, process invoices, and stay with other young employees. Irene's grandma also lived to 102 years old. She said: "Unless they let me leave, I will not give up work. I have no better things to do it. Staying with young people. I can still stand up now. This is the most important. I have no plan to retire and I don't want to sit at home all day. I like this job very much. "

In March 1981, Irene and her husband LES opened the pet food store, and later opened a buffet laundry. Soon after, they changed the laundry to a pet shop. After Les's death in 2007, her two grandson (36 -year -old Gayle Parks and 33 -year -old Stuart Parks) came to accompany her. Gayle is running this shop now, and Irene and her only daughter Lynn live in a farm in Sandbach, Chang County.

Gayle said: "She doesn't like sitting at home and watching TV, she feels boring, she prefers to work. Don't look at her older, she is actually easy to motivate others. I always say she is indispensable because she is indispensable because she is indispensable because she is indispensable because she is indispensable because she is indispensable because she is indispensable because Many people will come to the store to say hello to her. From generation to generation customers come to our shop, they still remember my grandma, she watched them grow up. Some customers have bought things from us for 40 years, and now change to change. Come and buy their children or grandsons. My grandma always asked these old customers these years, and she always asked them if they lived well. Sometimes the customers would bring photos to her. She always asked some families about the situation of the family. And how their children are doing. I think she has given us a lot of inspiration. If my four children see what she looks like when she is working, she can also love work like her, which is great. " (Compilation report of China Youth Network)
