Literally pictures of employees from that long ago left hanging up on the fridges in the break rooms.

Haha love that one you find old things, takes you back. My wife was at Surrey Memorial last year for surgery and my daughter and I were waiting downstairs in the surgical area waiting room which is part of the original hospital.
There was a waiting table and she was climbing around then opened up the bottom and found a magazine in there. It had the mail delivery address to Surrey Memorial still on it, and was dated 1983. There was a second from 1984.
So basically these two magazines had been sitting in that little table in that spot at Surrey Memorial, and hadn't likely moved, for nearly 33 years. Likely means nothing had been done changed that room for 33 years lol.
I'm sure SFU Burnaby and even UBC have many spots like that.
