Man, it just keeps getting worse.
The first sign is a reasonable expectation, the second sign removes a little agency but is still decent customer service, the third sign reads like a parody of overbearing corporate attitudes, and the fourth is just abusive
The 4th is straight up a symptom of abuse victims.
People literally have to go to therapy to learn how to stop doing that to themselves.
Imagine doing years of therapy to unlearn this habit only to have some middle manager cunt cause you to relapse.
The fifth should be instructions on how to kneel for the boss to get whipped and not complain
Yeah kneel to get whipped “whipped” that’s what they are doing and not the other thing.
I have no problem with the second one. If a customer asks you something and you can’t help them, you don’t just dismiss them. You might try to find the answer yourself, or find someone else who could help (the opposite of “not my department”). In the end you may not be albe to help them, but you should make an effort as an employee. Like you said, it’s the basis of good customer service, something that I don’t think is taught very much anymore (for reasons that delve into capitalism and other problems).
Third and fourth can go to hell.
Perfect dark comedy. I bet the corporate propaganda guy is a broken ex-clown, too sad to cry, and only his laughter soothes him.
Wow, that got really abusive really fast…
that escalated quickly
Those last two are just…wow.
I wouldn’t violate my clients trust or disrespect them. That’s fair.
I thought the “I’m subhuman trash and I’ve only to serve my job” was a bit much

Client: I clicked every link that said “hot singles in your area” and all I got was every trojan known to man, plus some guy named “James” from Bangladesh remoted into my computer and stole all of my banking information, and now I’m destitute.
GSA: that is all completely my fault, sorry I didn’t show up or message you for a sexy night. Please move in with me until you’re back on my feet, as Best Buy says it’s my fault that you’re a complete moron.
wow that one actually made me nauseous.
Attaboy.
A different context, but I think this is actually a pretty good rule for software engineering. A number of times I was sure a problem was someone elses fault, only for them to find my own silly mistake that I was overlooking. Sometimes the opposite also happens to me. Now I really make sure and typically find the actual root cause of problems before I suggest someone else caused it.
man i wouldn’t last a DAY there
i only “have clients” when i’m punched in, on the clock, being paid as we speak.
and that fourth sign, i used to honestly earnestly believe that in my past and it’s taken a lot of work to overcome.
i am dangerously tempted to remove that sign in rather spectacularly destructive ways.
If I saw this in the wall of a place I wanted to shop at, I’d probably just leave
I believe that these signs are not visible to customers
No clue what your potato took s photo of. Best Buy it looks like, but why?
Read the signs that’s interesting also
It’s all blur.
I will: Never violate the trust of my clients or disrepsect their property.
I will: Never say, “I don’t know.” Instead say, “I’ll find out.”
I will: Always understand that my clients’ time is more valuable than my own. Sci-Fi conventions, car shows, and movie premieres be damned.
I will: Assume every problem is my fault, unless proven otherwise.

The one helpful comment. Thank you.
Open the link in a web browser and zoom in
Some lemmy app like Boost will compress the picture by default so it load faster, just click on the HD button to have it show the uncompressed version

Well thanks for clearing everything up.

Wow. This place sounds more toxic than extremist politics. If I go to an interview and see this on the walls, I will point to it, say [loud enough for all to hear, but without yelling] “this view is exploitative, toxic, and unacceptably offensive, and I won’t work here”, turn around, and walk off.
The problem is that’s great for them you are not what they want. I started seeing these as like with spelling mistakes in scam emails they act as a filter for people that are not desperate or people that have enough self respect to not put up with it. That way they get the people they want that they can exploit to hell and back.
I agree. But that’s why I say it loud enough for other employees to hear. It plants a seed. Maybe it’ll grow, maybe it won’t. But if it does, it’ll be fruitful in that (soon to be former) employee, and maybe fruitful enough to cause an exodus.
How are you guys seeing the picture clear enough to read
In Firefox, I had to middle click the actual text/link itself to open the photo in a new tab, then it loaded the full resolution version. When I clicked the actual photo, I got an unreadable low-res version.
Ah, that did it. I am on Firefox as well and was wondering why so many others were getting a clear picture while I was looking at so much blur.
sorry for bad quality but if you zoom in you can read it properly : )
This handy little trick called zoom
Zooming into a blurry picture just gives to a closer look at the blur. There is some kind of disparity in what some people are seeing and what others are cause when I pull this up I get basically white lines on black backgrounds no matter how much I “enhance”.
Edit: Looks like it’s an issue with Lemmy’s interface with Firefox. Clicking the link gives you the clear picture while clicking the image gives you a rather large (and blurry) thumbnail.
Ah that makes sense. I was being sarcastic, but here:
Does that help?
Yes, thank you.
Edit: Jesus titty-fucking Christ
Not just Firefox, but I’m also getting a blurry picture on Voyager 🤷♂️
Never say “I don’t know”, instead say “i’ll find out”
