^^ Surely it would be better to tell those who wish to wear a black effin armband to work to go buy one themselves
It is all virtue signalling bandwagon bollocks - professional mass mourning in the extreme - let's all jump on the bandwagon
It will look good on our social media accounts
I note no one has given a serious answer to my question whether they wear a black armband to work when members of their own family pass away
No, but nobody's asked/forced me to wear one on this occasion either and I'm not going to. It's a person's individual choice so
it's not bothering me either way - apart from what other people have raised about it i.e the cost when RM are apparently penniless!
The question is being asked of those who are wearing one
Why are they being asked? No need, they can do what they want as long as they don't try and force me to wear one.
When my employer is spending money for them whilst pleading poverty, I have the right to ask questions why they are needed
If people want to wear them ( whilst never wearing one for members of their own family ) then they should be buying them with their own money
Agree with you re the expense but it's no good asking the people who have taken up RM's
offer, they didn't spend the money, ask Simon on the costly Workplace app why they've spent money on a virtue signalling
exercise. It's as bad as shops putting a poster in the window expressing their sympathies.

Why?
Wearing them is not compulsory.

Wore mine woth pride , cant nelieve the number of people who stopped me to say it was a good idea.
As to the argument about wearing it when your owm loved ones passed away well nothing to stop you but idont thonk there was 10 days of national morning when my mum and dad died, would have liked it to be of course .
