Security Note, Contributed by Marissa Buñag


This has DISASTER written all over it: Grammar, spelling, punctuation.  Oh my goodness, this guy needs to go to the ICU of the English Language Hospital!

What's a stronger word for correction? Revision? Overhaul?  So this sign should read:

Kindly keep the backdoor closed and padlocked at all times.  Strictly for emergency exit only.

Wait, if the door is used for emergency exit, why is it padlocked?  Oh, dear God, the technicalities of communication!  How we should really learn them if we want to get our message across properly.
