Whats a ten year badge look like? I have a cheap pin thingy with concentric "Cs" that was when Consignia was born - would that be it? It was about 3 years too late if I remember. I still have the brass badge with just a number on and another with my name and number on. TBH I try to wear a balaclava back to front these days so people don't see me.

I could give you the Royal Mail watch I got many years ago, needs a battery though.
Could be a collectors item in a few years, after we get privatised. :left:

never even opened mine, the manager tried to present it to me so i told him to shove it.
He said he had to present it even so. So i stuck a refused sticker on it and wrote in big letters
RETURN TO CROZIER NOT WANTED.

Manager was'nt very happy but did send it back :cfo

Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

I always have mine on my coat, to show I've managed to stick it out for that long. Particularly as we keep loosing experienced Posties to EVR.

Yeah I got the consignia badge as well I threw it away last week funny enough as no value to me also got a Plaque which is in amongst the rubbish in the loft.
I do have the silver 20 year pin badge which aint bad unless you blink as its a bit small did have a framed certificate which was sighned by crozier or lieghton but ripped that up as it was given to me in 2007 just after that bit of unpleasentness.
I'd rather have Lockheed deliver the mail than ride around in a plane built by the post office
