You are so right about their conveying messages that the manager did not intent. I would not like to walk into a place with all those signs, either. It reminds me of a Bed and Breakfast which is filled with cute little notes about what not to do....And you are right, once again, about email being misread. That is why I have found myself slapping in those little smiley faces as it is one of the few tools we have for adding lightness to an email which could easily be misinterpreted. Keep up the good work! Cheers, Lu Ellen : ) Loved the photos from the Baskin Robbins. You are so right about their conveying messages that the manager did not intent.
