Signage Confusion
Recently seen in a kitchen at a work place:
“Everyone: Please rinse teapots and then stand upside down in the sink.”
From a mailing list:
This may be an urban myth, but I was told that a fleet of buses had to delete “Allowed” from every sign saying “No Smoking Allowed” because a smoker has successfully argued that the sign merely allowed passengers not to smoke.
