Leduc man celebrates 50th work anniversary at car dealership – Edmonton [Video]

It’s been 50 years and Rolly Olsen loves his job at Leduc Chrysler as much as the day he started.

“It’s just been a wonderful place to work for,” Olsen said of the vehicle dealership in the city south of Edmonton.

He began his career in the parts department in 1975, at 32 years old.

“The feeling, for me, is having worked with so many different people over the years, and I don’t think I had a bad relationship with anybody,” he explained.

To recognize his five decades of service, the dealership threw a party and honoured him with some special hardware commending his passion and commitment.

The mayor of Leduc also gave him a key to the city.

“If you’re working at a job, and you come to a job every day, you should do your damndest just to try and enjoy it. And I don’t have to try — I just do it,” Olsen said.
