I swear. I mean look that the wording of some of these things.

“An opportunity is never lost. It’s just found by someone else."

"Service is the lifeblood of any organization. Everything flows from it and is nourished by it. Customer service is not a department...it's an attitude."

"Go over, go under, go around, or go through. But never give up."

"There are two ways of meeting difficulties. You alter the difficulties or you alter yourself to meet them."

Pair these up with some goth pictures and you have the office décor of W&H.


When I'm feeling snarky at work I make up new ones in my head. "Leadership: To lead is to inspire your followers to wade through oceans of blood to achieve your vision."

"Prophesy: Just because it is written doesn't mean that it has to come true in the most obvious way."

I was not. Their items didn't have enough of an edge of commentary on corporate life for my tastes. To be really funny they would also need to be sadly true of corporate life. Like this.

"LOYALTY: Is a very valuable thing. Loyal employees save us millions by not demanding those silly dignity and fair compensation things."

"CHANGE: Is the buzz word that we use to make it seem not so bad that we're dumping you in favor of paying an illegal alien a tenth of what you make."

Oh wait their Retirement one is good.

I dunno... their take on "change" (http://www.despair.com/change1.html) is making me giggle like a loon. I love the picture... ;D

I used to use Post-It Notes (back when they were so cool) that said:

"People work for money. If you want loyalty, buy a dog."
