Labor On The Move: Bessie Hubbard Makes Her Last Delivery

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)After a quarter of a century at the AFL-CIO -- 17 years in the IT department and the last 8 in Support Services -- Bessie Hubbard (right) stopped by the Metro Council earlier this week to let us know she’s retiring. Other than a cross-country trip, Hubbard cheerfully told Union City that she has “no plans other than enjoying each day relaxing beside the pool.” A familiar face around AFL-CIO headquarters, “Bessie’s smiling face will be much missed but we wish her the very best in her well-deserved retirement,” said Metro Council president Jos Williams. photo: Hubbard with Metro Council President Jos Williams; photo by Sylvia Casaro, CSA staff
