Wow…who thought plastering every wall with these blurbs would be a good idea?

Please sign if you feel like the company is patronising and demoralising us and treating the staff like children. We don't need these phrases to motivate us, or keep us focused on our customers.

It feels like we’re in kindergarten or primary school.

Can the managers please remove these sayings on the walls.

"...but the bestsellers are the classic original images, untouched since the glory days of the 1990s: An eagle soaring over the word “EXCELLENCE”; those rowers and their Teamwork; the words “Customer service is not a department... it's an attitude” under, for some reason, a picture of a waterfall."

And the other quotes are lifted from Shep Hyken's and other management blogs:

"It's not my fault, but it is my problem to solve" from https://hyken.com/customer-service-3/1104/

"To the customer, you are the company" from https://hyken.com/internal-customers/customer-you-...

"So remember, the customer’s problem may not be our fault, but it is still our problem to solve. After all, isn’t that what the best companies do?"
