Needles & Grooves

Back when I was teaching bass at Guitar Center, I got a pin on my 2 year anniversary. Enjoy the watch!

I got a pen (of writing fame) on my 2 year and a marble clock on my 5th. The latter being useful as a bludgeon.

That's a cool idea! Hopefully it's a nice watch.

Damn, how nice of a watch is it that you can buy an amp with the money?!haha

They used to give cash. Now they do one of those choose your gift things full of ostentatious watches, weird globes, crystal glasses that can't hold a proper drink, and Bose headphones.

@RowBearToe - no idea what trickyseven is going to be working with, but I know some companies take 10 year marks very seriously. My GF's company has done Rolex watches and high end hand engraved rifles for various anniversaries while she's been there. I believe they try to keep it around a $5K gift and they avoid repeats for people at 20/30 etc.

@RowBearToe probably only part of an amp. A used one. Last gen. On ebay. With a coupon.

@displayname wow, that's insane! Is it a smaller company or a very big one? Just curious.

@trickyseven nice!

@RowBearToe - Smaller company. Oil. Somewhat the traditional good ol' boy stereotype, but not like Mad Men or anything. I believe she said when they had one of the few women in the office hit 10 years they didn't know what to get her but they wanted it to be of equal value. She was also the only one at the 10 year mark that year. They sent her on a European vacation.

I like watches. What kind of watch?
