The work of a call center agent is often a repeated cycle of calls, tickets, reports, emails, and complaints. Most of the time, they deal with irate customers or encounter prospects who hung up the phone. The stress level is high in this industry. It even goes against the normal work hours. While other employees sleep soundly in the comfort of their own bedroom, call center agents are busy attending to their customers’ needs or achieving their sales or call quota.

But it doesn’t mean that being a call center agent is not fun. What these agents need is a regular break and constant stream of motivation that will not only keep their spirits alive but will also make them laugh.

In this article, we have compiled some call center motivational quotes that will hopefully inspire every call center agent from around the world.

These funny work quotes also provide a welcome change from our usual — formal — posts regarding the call center and the business process outsourcing (BPO) industry.
