OMG - I have to share this link with people who will appreciate the thought behind these "motivational" products...

I only wish these had been around when I was a CM. See especially "dreams" and "nepotism." ;)
Where were these people when I worked there?

Re: Where were these people when I worked there?
Love these! The supervisor for most of the employees in the building where I work -- not my own boss, thank goodness -- is a big fan of the real "Successories" posters and hangs them everywhere, without a single hint of irony.
I've been reduced to sabotaging them when I can. For instance, one of the earliest posters that went up showed a boat team rowing crew on a river, with the text "TEAMWORK. Coming together is a start. Working together is progress. Achieving together is success." I matched the font and color and added, "Sinking together is a real possibility." :) It lasted about a week before anyone who cared noticed and took it down.
