Really?

I'm amazed sometimes at the things I see posted on signs. It's not so much the actual posting but at the stupidity of people that somehow required the posting.
For instance at my work (where I can't take pictures) there is a sign posted by the cafeteria trays. It says, "Please do not use food service trays to sit on!" Really?
Seemed like common sense to me, but I guess not.

They also have a sign posted on the self service soda machine. As you may or may not know soda machines also dispense water. The sign says, "This is not a hand washing station. Please do not wash your hands here." This is not for our crackhead customers. This is for our employees.
Really?
Not to mention the water is ice cold.

I was amused by these two signs at the hospital when I took my mom out to the emergency room.

I just can't imagine the day when I think a plastic cup is something I should flush down the toilet, but apparently someone thought they should.


This one cracked me up. Is it really rocket science to figure this one out? You are in a room with three beds separated by curtains. Did you really think the curtains were a cone of silence? LOL.


I think one of my all time favorites, though, was the box I got when working at Joann's. The box contained two doll sized rocking chairs. On the bottom it said, "ATTENTION: Store personnel. Take product out of box and place on shelf."

I know I have a picture of it somewhere on my other computer, but I can't access it right now. This is why I am now going to leave and go buy myself an external hard drive. I want my pictures to be organized once and to all be in one location. I'm excited about this. No more having to figure out which computer and which file I need to go to to get the picture I want. YAY!

Comments

This is not really a post as concerns NaBloPoMo.
This post is informational.
Recently I have gotten some unsettling comments on an old post. (Surprise Guest, Sept.)
I have deleted them, only to find they came back. They are not even really comments, just links to a bunch of adult sites. I don't understand people. And why on that blog? Who knows? The weird part is that they are not even in English, but in Russian? or ?
At any rate, I do not want to delete the blog, so I have enabled comment moderation on posts older than 5 days on "World of Words". Since most of you who comment usually do so within a day or two it shouldn't affect most of you. If you want to comment on any blogs older than five days it will simply tell you that the comment has to be approved before it is posted.
This is not because of any comments I have gotten from friends and family and even strangers who have sincerely commented on my blogs.
It is just a step I am taking to try and circumvent the idiots who find fun in stupidity. Since all the spam has only gone to that one blog I am hoping it will lay it to rest. If not I will step up my security another notch.
Thanks for understanding.
