I have a very nice office chair with a corporate asset tag on it as well. My company purchased all new chairs and let employees take the old ones.
it’s an asset tag. It’s used to label items in a database for inventory control.
I still have a desk chair I “borrowed” from my Navy recruiting office…in 1976.
See if you can activate the weapons system.
Isn’t the defense company Lockheed Martin and that says Lockhead?
Straight to jail
Lol, knockoff defense systems for sure
Keep It!
CHAIR COMPANY
Looks like you weren’t the first to liberate that chair.
It’s an asset control tag for an Automatic Flight Safety System (aka flight termination system)
70k$ chair
It’s also GFP. Government Furnished Property. Comes with all sorts of requirements as to where and how it can be used and typically is required to be scrapped when it’s EOL. Some poor guy in charge of GFP at Lockheed is probably still looking for it in his database.
If it’s not bolted down, some military person or contractor will figure out a way to bring it home.
GFP = Government Furnished Property
This chair was managed by LM, but the actual property belongs (or belonged) to the government customer under that program name.
All of the big defense contractors have trouble keeping track of GFE/GFP to the tune of billions. But I doubt anyone is missing this chair.
That means they billed the government $10k for that $39 chair
Its a munitions desk chair. Has a seating radius of around 18 miles if dropped from a height not exceeding 50,000 feet.
What’s the difference between LockheAd and LockheEd?
