She’s making us look bad! Felimina Rotundo works 11 hours day, six days a week at a Buffalo, NY laundromat and says she has no plans to quit working even though she turned 100 two months ago.
She tells WGRZ-TV that she got her first job at 15 during the Great Depression and has been working ever since.
Rotundo works from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. washing clothes and handling dry cleaning at the College Laundry Shoppe. She says she hasn’t considered retirement and will continue working as long as her health is good.
Rotundo, who hit the century mark in August, says she likes being out and working because it gives her something to do.

Bless Her.
It sounds like staying active and being productive helps a person have a longer life.
I am with her . Keep busy and healthy both in mind and body.
I am 81 looking forward to be 100 life is great,keep going sister
Amen! I am only 72, but intend to live well past 100 by being active physically and mentally. I was just recently named the National Senior Games Athlete of the Month because I have competed in 53 different sports in the last six years, medaling in 35. I am starting up a new business next year which will require lots of physical activity as well as mental gymnastics, etc.
It keeps you young.
I will be 73 on Christmas eve. born 12/24/42
I am still working too….
I don’t look my age. A lot of people guess me to be in my 50’s or early 60’s.
