HR Hero T-Shirt

HRQ · September 2003

Just received my AZ subscription renewal notice. The letter states that if I renew by 10/31 and send in my little renewal certificate, I'll "receive a free, 100 percent cotton HR Hero T-shirt".

Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, I'm getting a t-shirt! (sing song voice)

We'll just see if I get around to sending my picture in to the Forum though. I don't have any good "posing" ideas though - the only one that comes to mind is of me swimming around Don D's dream moat, being followed by alligators that I don't realize are there, and THAT's not gonna happen. Maybe I'll send a picture of my children wearing my shirt. Will that do? x;-)

Parabeagle · September 2003

Yeah. Sure. You're getting a t-shirt. Just like all the rest of us who have been waiting patiently. x;-)

And, no, kids don't count. Has to be you in the picture wearing the shirt. x:-)

I renewed ten days ago and yesterday I got a nice padded envelope in the mail containing yet another bright blue, red and gold Hero T-Shirt. Am I the only one with two of them on my closet shelf?

ray a · September 2003

Wait a minute. I just renewed recently and got nothin. Whatsup with that?

MarilynR · September 2003

Just wanted to chime in - I also renewed a couple of months ago and received a T-shirt. And no, I won't be posting a picture.

Don D · September 2003

Your renewal request has been temporarily derailed by the acceptance and review committee, which I chair this year. You will be getting a notification letter and need not contact us. Thank you for your interest in renewing.

AnneLa · September 2003

Three years and still no free T!

System · September 2003

I'm wainting for the other line of shirts - the one that carries a size medium.

HRQ - if you don't come up with any unique ideas for a pose, just sit at your desk like Ray did.

ray a · September 2003

Wait a minute, I'm the only one who submitted a picture while sitting at my desk - I think that makes me unique.

HRQ · September 2003

I could do the "desk pose" thing, but that would start a contest for "Ugliest and most abused office furniture". Scarred furniture shows character. x:D

We'll see if I actually GET the t-shirt, first.

diddo???

bamahr · September 2003

I renewed and also got my T-shirt - pretty snazzy - not too sure about the picture.

System · September 2003

Somebody go for it! Who will be the first female? I'm still holding out for the last 5 pounds (I gained one).

We need a contest where you can win a really nice cruise somewhere paid for by Margaret or perhaps James. Simply send in a photo of you wearing your HR HERO shirt in some exotic locale. The best photo wins the abovementioned cruise.

Anyone second that?

Paul in Cannon Beach

Parabeagle · September 2003

I'll second that, Paul. Too bad I DON'T have a t-shirt, because I could have had my picture taken while at a conference in exotic, picturesque Newport, Oregon. x;-)

System · September 2003

Yeah, talk about motivation! I could lose that 5 pounds real quick.

NicoleLee · September 2003

Hey...I get a t-shirt i will post a picture...i am not sure who will want to look at it, but I will post it!

Don D · September 2003

Send me $29.95 and a red glass bottle for my tree and I will send you an unopened, brand new T-shirt.

gillian2 · September 2003

How do you open a T-Shirt?

Don D · September 2003

...Let me rephrase. An unopened, bubble-wrapped package reportedly containing a bright red, yellow and blue HR-Hero T-Shirt. (But since James sent it, it may be limburger cheese. He's a joker).

System · September 2003

Hey, How did you get more than one shirt?

ray a · September 2003

Beg

Don D · September 2003

I got my first one, with the ribeye box on dry ice, when I told Margaret I was impressed with her column, about a year or so ago. I got the second one when I begged for it and promised a photo. I got the third one when I paid that awfully exhorbitant renewal fee that was enough to buy a boxcar load of them.

HRQ · September 2003

I thought you said you have TWO shirts. You are holding out on us. Now you apparently have THREE shirts. Sew them together into a m'uu m'uu (sp?) and send us a new picture.

moneyman · September 2003

But you really need 2 shirts, for Don D AND the evil twin.

Don D · September 2003

I can't be held responsible for telling you how to open one. I'm just reporting that this one is unopened.

System · September 2003

Hey, it works! I renewed my subscription and I've received my HR Hero shirt. Only problem is, it is HUGE! Maybe I could wear it as a dress and send in a picture??

Whatever · September 2003

Is this some form of discrimination against people who aren't huge? x;-)
