“And here’s your lanyard.”
“Thank you!”
“Wear it at all times.”
absolutely not. I’m already obviously a tourist. I’m not ready to let “corporate tourist” add to the vulnerability profile. Not a chance in hell.
“Of course!”

@randomgeek Work tells us to not wear our ID off the campus.
But yet we have parking tags on our cars that tells people where we work.

@technoid_ I know in the way back Seattle had some small issue with blue badges getting harrassed on the street.
Sometimes as a shakedown, but usually just because they worked at Amazon.

@randomgeek I think it would be great if people cared that much anymore.
Hell, we can't even stop buying from those companies anymore.
I work for a contractor for a federal agency, so somethings are real, while others are security theater.

@technoid_ oh we give Amazon our money, but that doesn’t mean we can’t mock them on the streets.
Not warehouse and delivery folks though. Just the blue badges.

@randomgeek @technoid_ I cross the street to avoid them. Last thing I want is to be further tainted.
I stopped buying from the con 23 years ago. It's not that hard to do.

@nomad @technoid_ I include buying from folks who run their services on AWS as giving them money.
But anyways, it's irrelevant to my original point. I can always mock the pampered servants of late capitalism. Even if I need a mirror to do it.

@randomgeek .gov drilled into me that having your badge visible outside work was an opsec fail

@genehack yah, during dot-com era folks loved flashing their badges. Over time – well they kept wearing their badges, but started clustering in common spots closer to work where they were less likely to get mocked by the rest of the city.

@randomgeek @nomad Had a friend that worked on Amazon's webmaster team when they were just a book seller.
Amazon treated her bad, so I avoided Amazon. Treat my friends badly and I am not going to give you my money.
