Not including photos to dox myself, but my company is celebrating a big anniversary. They put out an email about the merch store full of 'limited time swag' available on the company intranet. So I take a look at the anniversary stuff and they actually expect staff to pay for it. They've done a bunch of weird stuff like IT requests also go through a 'store' interface and PPE comes from a vending machine -neither of which require employees to actually pay for anything, it's just the framework. So I assumed that's what the anniversary merch store was, but nope they legit seem to think employees wanna spend 40 bucks on a hoody with the company's logo or 30 for a high end lunch box.

My employer (about 5k total employees so pretty large) also has a merch store. I’ve never understood it but people seem to buy stuff

The merch store for the last place I worked was open to the public so even if you didn't work there you could still buy stuff to show your Love Of Brand

Yeah, like I'd absolutely take a free hoodie or polo with the logo and have some cups, thermoses, and hats the company has given me, but lmao at the idea of paying for that poo poo.

Oh yeah after the first year of covid they gave us hoodies in the wrong size with our name and company logo and "We Survived" on them The water bottles and pens and stuff they gave us for free were dollar store tier plastic garbage. When I got a certificate for Good At Job the frame had a bunch of double sided tape and tape residue all over it because they just pulled down somebody else's certificate so they could use the frame

Shame Boy posted:Also looking at other sites it seems like there's a massive variation in cost between where you get the script filled so idk maybe I'm just lucky. Like it's $15 at wal-mart, $27 at Costco, $40 at Target etc. Yeah I got totally shafted that's why I got mad. Then the awesome pharmacist lady got back and said the whole order was wrong and got it back down to $10. So who knows.

I've worked at two places that had a company store but you'd periodically get store credit for it for like safety awards or such which I thought seemed reasonable. I dunno who would pay money for it but being given like a coupon that you could get a tumbler or hoodie etc for reporting a hazard in the warehouse or w/e felt like a nice enough gesture. Dunno if anyone spent money to get stuff outside of that though. I got a variety of beanies that way my wife immediately stole as well as a nice tumbler I used for tea for a while.
