Ogden • Not only is Hartmut Jeske old enough that he could have retired at least 15 years ago, even the job itself is nearing retirement age.
As of June 16, the 80-year-old North Ogden man has been working the same job — at the same company — for 60 years.
And this isn’t some cushy desk job we’re talking about here. Jeske is a fabricator for Richards Sheet Metal Works in Ogden. He spends his four 10-hour days each week on his feet, operating presses, lasers and other machinery to cut and bend metal to his will.
