In today’s world, the median tenure for U.S. workers at a company is 4.2 years. That statistic alone makes Melody Taninies’ time at IAMU impressive. Melody has been delighting members with her smile and her service for 25 years.

Melody was drawn to the IAMU because she wanted to work for a service organization. As she recently explained, “I like to help people and IAMU just felt right. It was a good fit from the very first day.”

Melody started at IAMU in April 1992 as a receptionist, and after two years settled into her role as the administrative assistant for the Job Training and Safety (JT&S) area, which recently changed to Safety Services. Melody is now transitioning into a new administrative role at IAMU.

“Being part of how IAMU has grown into what it is today has been quite a ride!” Melody said.  “It doesn’t seem at all like twenty-five years.”

Hi Harold! You were always such a bright spot for me at IAMU. I've missed seeing you and so many of the other long standing members (mostly retired) that I saw year after year working so hard for IAMU and their city & utility operations. I wish you the best of all God's blessings. ~Melody

Hi Lori. Thank you very much. I just replied to Harold's comment and told him that I missed seeing him and so many other long standing members who worked so hard for IAMU and their city & utility operations. Such great people, like yourself. I trust you are happy in your retirement and, in a couple years, I hope to be enjoying that chapter of my life, too. Wishing you all the very best of God's blessings. ~Melody
