Can this query be set up like :-

Consider the below scenarios :

Ram completed 5 years on 12/04/2014
Shyam completed 5 years on 21/04/2014
Ayan completed 10 years on 12/04/2014
and so on...

Now consider the current month is *march*. I have 12 employees. Out of which
above only completed 5 and 10 years. Thus my output should come as

Name  milestones    when
Ram     5                12/04/2014
Shyam  5               21/04/2014
Ayan    10              12/04/2014

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore,
if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not
smart enough to debug it.
