«I`m not young bit still not old»
On the 3rd of October, an annual and a traditional meeting of Chelyabgipromez's non-working veterans devoted to the International Day for the Elderly took place.
Who is an elderly person? This is a person who can say: "I am not already young but I'm still not old”. In other words, an elderly person is a person that lives in the period of transition from youth to anility.
As it is determined by science and confirmed by practice, we say that people are old if they are 20 years senior to us.
Twenty-year-olds call forty-year-old people oldsters; they, in their turn, think that people of sixty are old; for octogenarians, old people are those who are 100 and older.
On
behalf of the executive board of the institute and the Veterans
Council, S.A. Shenkman, vice-chairman of the Veterans Council,
congratulated the audience on a holiday:

V.A. Vedeneev, Chairman of the Trade-Union Committee, merrily and sincerely congratulate people on a holiday.
During the meeting, Andrey Rudnev's accordion twanged and Yuriy Sokolov's ("gold voice of Chelyabgipromez”) vocal and guitar were heard.
People danced, sang, joked and laughed. Everyone knows that laugh sustains our life; that is why we wish veterans more reasons for laugh and joy and less causes for grief.
Veterans warmly thanked for the opportunity to come together and were happy that Chelyabgipromez keeps its traditions alive and remember those people who devoted many years to the work in the institute.
