At my previous place of work, in a fit of post-modern, hipstery redesign, the hotel bar got a back-lit sign stating boldly:"NORMAL IS BORING" (And the reception area also got a life-size black plastic horse-lamp that apparently cost some 4-5000 euros[1]). My initial search turned up:"MINORS LABOURING" as a kind of suitable answer to this challenge. This was quickly spotted by the hotel manager, changed back with an accompanying angry post-it note stating: "Do not mess with the sign". My second attempt was more simple, and effective - changing the sign to read "BORING IS NORMAL". This more simple and true statement stayed up for a week or so before anyone noticed that the sign accurately reflected the corporate culture. It's since been changed back.
