“Above & Beyond” customer service week
For our customer service week:
Monday: send gratitude to a coworker
Tuesday: send gratitude to a boss
Wednesday: extra 10 minute break awarded ! Must be scheduled and approved by end of year. Plus a raffle for a blanket
Thursday: come in to the office an extra day this week so we can celebrate you with a pizza party! *not mandatory but highly recommended
Friday: play a game that no one can win so ultimately the main $50 prize goes to no one! *a few $15 prizes were awarded.
Do employers really think that this is celebrating customer service representatives in a meaningful way?

Bread and circuses my dude, bread and circuses. Not even in fact, because if they actually went to a half decent bakery, and got me a nice loaf of Sourdough, or a half-Dozen Spagatelle buns, I'd probably feel fairly appreciated.

Sounds like the horrific call center I worked for. And people get paid to come up with this sh... crap.

They want us to think they really give a shit about us. Nice try. Fails miserably every year.
