Thread regarding Sears layoffs

I object to the new lanyards sponsored by Citi

I don’t mind wearing one with sears Kmart plastered all over it, they are my employer

BUT

I do object advertising for sh--ty Citi

For free..

Can I use a black sharpie and redact their name from my laynard? Or do they want to pay us some advertising fees? Lol

Did I not notice their name on the laynard before?

@qxy That was part of a relationship that's been ongoing for years. Sears had been receiving licensing fees and per-signup/use royalties from Citi for their co-branded credit cards for years. Then last year Sears got desperate for cash and agreed to an up-front lump-sum payment to cover the next couple years of what Citi would have owed them on an ongoing basis.

You wear what Sears requires you to wear. I'm sure Sears is getting kickbacks from signing people up for the Citi c-ap. You are not going to get anything added to your paycheck if that's what you are looking for. It's a sting around your neck with marketing on it...get over it.

Using the same color marker as the lettering just color it out or using the same color of the lanyard just color it out. Your choice

MOST LIKELY Nobody will even notice it if done discreetly

Sears probably can't afford to order new lanyards so they got some handouts from Citi. Look for employee shirts with ads for competitors on it like they do in the ShopYourWay online games coming soon.

They are not the ones out of shoe lace material but a more flexible fabric

Citi guy at our store handed them out a couple weeks ago said that’s our Christmas present.
