Why thank you, Zzapp. I had that t-shirt printed in honor of my 'girls' who are now almost two years old (on June first). The date is printed on the back. The guy who did it thought it was hilarious.
If anybody is interested, it was a great decision with no complications and I'd do it again tomorrow. I had an awesome surgeon. Feel free to PM questions!
Back on topic, this week at work I saw a sign in the window where they issue uniforms reading "Check badges for all company's".
There is also a sign in the bathroom asking people to keep it tidy. In response, someone wrote "Quit waisting time and clean the muther******".
I saw one recently at a newsagency. "Positions wanted".
I can think of a few.

Last night I stopped at the grocery store to pick up a few things, and I observed the following sign posted above a small cooler stocked with parmesan cheese:
SUPER BUY!!!!
Don't forget to pick up some
KRAFT PARMESAN CHEESE
to go with the
CREAMETTE PASTA
you just purchased
????
I don't know about you, but I love me an overabundance of punctuation marks. Especially when they're by themselves and improperly used.
BTW, the cooler was pretty full, so I don't think they were selling a lot of parmesan cheese.

Now I know why there seems to be such a high turnover rate at that place! They don't train any of their emplo-ees. You just fill out an apple-cayshun, then after it's all filled out, you're the new fry cook of the place! And for those that stay, these are the people who are pamoted to a higher up posit-ton to make posters like that!
No training required, and no background check done either.
Damaging their efforts to keep the word "McSlave" out of dictionaries.
I'm thinking that they just sort of gave up on their image after the word "McJob" entered the lexicon.
Speaking of image, there's a McDonald's in the city here that has a centrally-located fireplace, wood and brick walls, and several flat creen TV's turned onto cable television. The first time I went in there, I had to back out to make sure I walked in the right door.

Being a pessimist and cynical wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't right so often!

Ah, sorry, that's the one they were trying to keep out of the dictionary. Though I think McSlave has a better ring to it, so it's what I'm going to use.

Cable TV is sneaking into a lot of places, even the mid-level ones. Why, I don't know, but then again, I really don't like TV at all. As for the rest, yes, there are some really high-end McJoints. It always seems like a waste to me, considering that they're fast food, but whatever floats their boat. It's not like they lack the money to do it with.

You know what would really make them high-end? Using real chicken in the Nuggets, and using real onions in the Big Mac. (Instead of those weird little onion-flavoured pellets that they're currently using.)
/picking on McDonalds. Well, for now, anyways.

When I was in seventh grade, my English teacher was notorious for correcting spelling and grammar errors, particularly in places of business. She used to frequent Publix and whenever the produce people saw her coming, they would check their signs to make sure they were correct. She saw one that said "Idahoe Potatoe, 29 cents per pound" and actually got on their nearby microphone, and said "Idaho and Potato don't have an 'e' on the end of them!" Later on, she saw a sign that said "Now excepting applications for employement" to which she flagged down the manager, asking him how you "except" an application, let alone she had to point out the misspelling of "employment". She was a riot, and the employees usually all cringed the moment she came into the store.
