Poor Customer Service Cartoon - Illustrating Service Delays and Frustration #3029226 (License: Personal Use)

The illustration depicts a visibly annoyed customer standing beside a counter where a service employee lies asleep, feet up, newspaper covering their face, and “ZZZ” indicating deep slumber; a small “Ring for Service” sign sits unheeded on the desk. The scene uses exaggerated expressions and visual cues to emphasize neglect, inefficiency, and the emotional toll of poor service experiences. The background’s soft teal swirl adds a comic tone without diminishing the underlying critique.

This image is commonly used in articles, blog posts, or presentations about customer service failures, employee engagement, or business process improvement; it targets managers, HR professionals, and CX strategists seeking to highlight systemic issues in service delivery.
