Still got my 15 yr silver pin
They scrapped the gold 20 yr before I reached it.

My 20 year badge is in a drawer somewhere, but it's 'Consignia' not RM. I see there's one on ebay for £45! I might have to look for mine! :Very Happy

Still waiting for my 20 year award....

Done just over 22 years now, and apparently management are "still chasing it".....

Perhaps it's mine for sale on Ebay.... :crazy: :shock: :Very Happy
And after a while, you can work on points for style,
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,
So that when they turn their backs on you,
You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

The 10 year service award is now a badly manufactured piece of coloured plastic. It is not made of Bronze :sad:

Yeah they don’t give a Feck now as long as big shareholders get their greedy dividend. Nothing else matters. I’m embarrassed now to work for royal dividend mail.
