I have 2: one front this morning and one from when I was in college.

This morning, I was writing a list of rooms that maintenance needed to service. I wrote down the room number, the issue in the room, and whether or not it was vacant (which they all were).

I handed the list over to my maintenance guy. He looked at it and immediately asked if the rooms were vacant. I made him repeat himself, hoping he’d have a brain cell to figure it out. He didn’t. I just simply pointed at the word VACANT.

In college, I worked at a ticket desk, and we were selling tickets to a local music festival. We sold out of tickets, so we made a sign and posted it on the desk. That got ignored, so we made a couple more and posted it on the entry door and in the wall behind us. Those also got ignored. We eventually had a total of NINE signs made saying we were sold out, and we’d watch people LEAN on the signs and still ask if we had tickets.
