    1. All the name badges I’ve ever had in my 15 years at M&S. Today was my last shift but I kept every badge and thought it was mildly interesting to see how much they have changed over the years. 🙂

    2. I like that one that says “our logo is boring, let’s change it” and “the old one was better, let’s change it back”

    3. Honestly, I’m surprised how consistent they are with the M&S in the top left and name in bottom right through all the variations of it.

      I have my old Sainsbury’s one in a box somewhere still.

      Why does marks and Spencer give off vibes like the Bay (or like Nordstrom if you’re American?) but it’s actually just a grocery store with other shit? Like it sounds like a place I would go to get clothes. Imagine winners/TK maxx/tj Maxx had a fresh produce section.

      It’d be really funny if you just randomly mixed in an old name tag from a co-worker so it looked like you randomly changed your name to ‘Bob’ or something for a year, then changed it back.

      Shawn really did not want to cause issues, but after 15 years of the wrong spelling, something had to be done.

    7. You can see why they swapped to engraved traffolyte. It’s what we use to label stuff in engineering when you want it to last.

    8. Irishman!

      That’s the nickname my family calls me because I grew up in an Irish neighborhood, and everyone my parents knew refused to call me by my English name.

      I love the coating that badges used to have. You see it very clearly on the first one, already halved on the second one. Then a thin layer on the third,fourth and fifth one, and afterwards just a piece of plastic.
