Maybe you have to close the door in front of you, that's a clerical error. lol
So, seriously. We see these signs with misused quotes going up. They are put up by a co-worker. In some cases we know the coworker who did it.
Have any of us *asked* the person what the heck they were thinking when the put in the quotes? Because, honestly, I can *not* comprehend what they were thinking. It's not simply a matter of being wrong that bugs me. I seriously can not comprehend what anyone could possibly mean by this or why it would even occur to them.
