Signage non-compliance

Post by Alexis »

Not fully H&S orientated, but ...people will be people and not follow the instructions. A friend of mine sent me this today.

The sign says NOT to get on the bed, but oh well..the best way to motivate
people to do something is to put up a sign saying "Don't . . . !"

I don't speak German but surely the pictogram s just say not to have mobile phone or keys in your pocket. No seem to indicate not to lay on the bed .scratch :?

Red's right. :shock: ;)

The sign basically says
Attention. When sampling, take sharp objects (phone, keys), etc out of your pockets.

And no, whilst I had the basic idea, my German isn't that good, I used an on-line translator to confirm my suspicions. .salut

Although I speak minimal German and read even less I didnt look at the signs etc and when I watched it the first time (about 2 months ago) I had laptop muted as was at work.

Still funny none-the-less
