ade2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 This year the place I work decided to bring in a security measure where they say"you have to have a sticker in your windscreen with the companies name on it" Since getting my Zed, they are trying to enforce this on me even more.. Well its only a factory making food, i don't work for Mi5 or anything.. Does anyne agree that its wrong to be told to have the companies name stuck in the windscreen of my Zed? Fair enough I will keep it in my pocket and show it if asked, but I refuse for my Zed to be a rolling advert.. I'm a being unresonable or do you agree??

Pagnobito Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 How is it a security measure? Surely all they need to know is your registration. We dont even have the company name on our passes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 my work has a red or yellow square in the window with my payroll number in it, i would tell them to stuff it up thier arse. alternatively you could only put it up when in work premesis which would be acceptable i suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I am aware of the you have to have in your windscreen is a valid tax disc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 alternatively you could only put it up when in work premesis which would be acceptable i suppose Thats what I used to do when I worked for DWP. Just pop it in the window and everyone is happy For my last job, I was on client site so much, when I visited my so called "base office", I didnt bother with my pass as if I parked as a visitor I got a space right outside the front of the office and the spaces were bigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade2009 Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Yes thats my point.. Something in your windscreen like that is obstructing your view.. And at the end of the day its my car i own it not them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jotun Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Yeah, just have it on a piece of card and stick it on the dash when it needs to be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuck Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Surely if they are making you use your car for advertising their company, they should put something towards it? I've heard the windscreen space of a Zed is quite valuable real estate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtbiscuit Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 i have a door hanger style card with my reg on for my carpark and it hangs on the rear view mirror. i can put it up and take it down of my own free while. but its visible when it needs to be. why not make your own version up and stick your company sticker on that. then you can put it up and take it down to your hearts content.

yokomo Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 how bigs the sticker ? seems like its prety common for some kind of permit , my last place we had little thing with your reg and extension on it so most just bunged down by the tax disc. unless we are talking big ole signage then just bung down there out the way .

BulletMagnet Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Stick it on the passenger sunvisor, so when you need to display it, then just flip 'em off, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNA540i Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I remember working at a place in brimsdown and the security pass on the car was a small blue circle with a white triangle. I stuck it behind the rear view mirror and that wasa fine but I think your company is being a little over the top asking you to advertise for them for free.

Is this also not openly saying to potential thieves, oh this is where my car is parked during the day. Unless of course your carpark at work is secure.

ade2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Good point.. No the car park is not secure.. Anyone can just drive out without them batting an eyelid or giving a dam.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
