Nice one Bruneep. You must have some stories to tell after 20 years…
Any more expensive than the pin badge and the medal and you’d have the haterz swarming out of their pleasant 3 bed semi’s in force, waving their daily mails and demanding you go back to looking for the sun alliance insurance plaque on the front of a burning building before turning the hoses on.
My boss has a glass thing (like the monolith in 2001 but clear, on a glass plinth) polished/frosted in honour of 20 years of service with one of our local nhs trusts.
For my impending ‘unlucky 13’ years of unflinching NHS service, I got punched in the face at work the other day, and will shortly be TUPE’d into the uncertainty of a social enterprise, having a pay freeze (read: 3% per year cut) and my pension screwed over. As per Ernie’s post though, I’m sure I should be honoured and grateful for the opportunity to do all this for you though. 😕
