suggestion box
I know, it does not reflect the 'complaint' of the German. In the USA, there is usually a box outside the manager's office where employees can let off steam or propose improvements. This sounds like it is serving the same purpose.

Understand Stephan, but it could be titled the SAME thing in the newspaper and EVERYONE, at least in the USA, would understand its purpose.*** Sorry, Stephen, fat fingers. and choice is good for the asker.

Should be "Speakers' Corner", of course. It's hard not to be affected by the prevailing Deppenapostrophisitis.
