Y'all are getting backpacks?
-
It is a nice backpack tho...
-
that's why i donate mine each time i get one.
also because i feel that i'm literally branding myself as a target for any thieves out there. lol

Lol, they asked for the bag back the last handful of places I left.
Didn't care though, cuz they were falling apart (the bags too).
-
they wanted the damn tshirts back from me once.
-
Yeah, some places are super petty. Hell, the last CEO I had removeded at my manager because I was stoked he offered to get me some equipment that my last previous gig strung me along on.
Man, I'm so glad to be away from that narcissistic asshole

Wearing a tech company backpack in public, especially in the rougher parts of town, is like wearing a sign that says "scrawny nerd probably with expensive electronics, come rob me."
-
It doesn't work for backpacks that might have the company name embroidered on, but for cheaper print-on-demand items like hats and water bottles, acetone will cause the logo to dissolve or shift.
That says, I have personally removed embroidered logos from clothes before, when the product itself is excellent but aesthetically ruined by a logo. It's very finnicky work with a seam ripper, and has gained me a lot of nice thrift store finds.
-
i like doing this to pretty much everything i own that can have the logo removed.
hate the coarse plastic they use now, where the acetone will sort of "polish" it and it will look ugly as fuck.
-
Yep, sometimes acetone will do that. But other times, another solvent like gasoline might do the trick. Or maybe a heat gun.
I see it as an engineering challenge, how to best remove intrusive logos from stuff. IMO, all this is part-and-parcel to the second part of: reduce, reuse, recycle. Also, sometimes certain logos can be clipped in very creative ways haha

My current employer's complimentary backpacks arent nearly as nice as my previous employers. Until my current employer steps up their game, my previous employer is getting a meager amount of advertising out of me
