Gag Award!!!

60
14
While I was at Ace Hardware today, the cashier was explaining that she was the employee of the month - every month- in her mind. The manager said they had no such award and one of her fellow workers said she needed an award for that!! So I said I might be able to help with that and asked her name......Amy!
I cut  her award out of some 1/2" Baltic Birch and finished it with clear satin enamel. The top is glued and doweled to the base.
I used to work at Ace Hardware in Aurora, Ill in the '60's and I still have my pocket protector that we wore back then! It is on my memorabilia

Thank you all for the interesting comments! She'll probably take it home! I like fun people and she sure is one!! Her other employees might get a kick out of it but I don't know about the manager??? I did use their logo!!

Ducky, I almost put "every month" on there!!!!

This will put a smile on her face so that makes this a great gesture on your part. Great work.
That’s a neat thing to do for her…but your old badge takes the cake! How awesome is that!?!

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".
