In the apartment building I reside in the manager's office is on the ground floor, next to the washers and dryers, in the same corner as the laundry room.
Of course the door is locked after hours.
Now, on the office door is a sign stating NO PUBLIC RESTROOM.
Now, is a sign like this really necessary? I mean, the office door is either locked, or the manager is present and on duty.
Maybe the sign is still needed
...like in the event someone were to decide to pick the lock so they could have a look around the office after business hours, commit vandalism, theft, or simply help themselves to tenant files---at least they would still know and be aware that the office restroom itself is "off limits" to all outsiders.
Maintaining protocol is of the utmost importance, after all ....

Maybe the manager doesn't want every Tom, Dick and Harry asking him if they can use his loo?
ReplyDeleteThat's probably it.
ReplyDeleteBut I just couldn't overlook the irony of a sign like that on a locked door after business hours.
BTW: The manager is a she, just for the record.
Ah, even more reason for the sign. Interesting I assumed the manager was male. Proving that deep down I still believe that positions of slight authority are held by men.
