How did that sign make all they way up there? The number of people that had to have looked at that sign before it was posted had to be more than 5 at the least.
Someone early on in the process made a typo in a form somewhere, then:
I get paid to process orders, not proofread
I get paid to manufacture the sign, not proofread
I get paid to package the sign for shipping, not proofread
I get paid to put the sign up, not proofread
And good for all of them, they’re right. Quality control should be paid for, and if you’re not being paid to do quality control, don’t fucking do it.
The fact the contractor is paying means somewhere along the line of subcontracting someone typed it in wrong. The contractor likely aren’t the ones making the sign, and there may even be another level of subcontractors each getting more specialized in there if the main contract is for the entire State.
Yeah but like… have you seen how big those signs actually are? If you’re working with them, they’re so big that it’s hard to read them up close. And the pieces might have been upside-down, making it even harder. I’m willing to give most of the people involved a pass. But not the people at the sign shop that should be checking before cutting the decal or whatever, or the people doing (or rather not doing) quality control before letting the sign leave the shop, or whoever was standing around watching when they were putting the sign up (unless they pointed it out and got told they’ll put it up anyway until they get a fixed one).
I don’t know, but similarly, you have no idea how many “SOTP” photos you can find.
Why is that not just one big stencil? Why do they have to lay down each letter individually? No idea. Unless that is the stencil, which makes it worse.

This exactly.

Thinking of the exit sign for “Scotrun,Pa”. Always had to look at least 3 times to convince myself it didn’t say “scrotum”.
