Man, 14 years is a hell of a long time in one place.

I’m having my 15 years jubilee at work this year.

Some colleagues are at 40 before retiring.

Your employer is having a party in celebration of your time with them? Am I reading that correctly?

[-] Skunk@jlai.lu 5 points 1 week ago

Mmh no, they give 0,5 month of salary or 11 days off for 15 years, 1 month or 22 days off for 20 years (repeatable every 5 years).

But no party or stuff like that. Jubilee is just the strict traduction of "Jubilé" in French, it’s not a celebration with Gary Barlow composing music from the commonwealth (source: Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II)

Right on! Thank you for the clarification! That sounds much better than a work party, in my opinion. In the US, the term is often meant as a "fancy" way to say party, usually over several days.
