Forever Green & Gold: Michael Barr
Michael Barr, Sales Associate, working on the third floor in the Bed Studios. My Harrods journey started in 1973, and I started as a Porter, then I moved across to Furniture. My mother was working here as a cleaner in the mornings, and she suggested that I come along. I thought I’d give it a try. At first, it was just a temporary job, has become not so temporary. Speaking to most of the people that I’ve had, telling me about my future retirement, how they warmed to me, not wanting me to leave, it’s very heartfelt. My name is Michael Barr, and I'm proud to be a Forever Green and Gold Alumni. If you're a former colleague and would like to stay connected join our Alumni network.
