Note #2

How on earth does a for-profit business think that it is okay to not proofread things before sending it to the printer for mass-production?

I took this photo of the placard that is posted in every single cabin of the K-1 gondola at Killington.

Absolutely retarded.

Haha no lie it took me about 3 read throughs to catch the big one. I kept focusing on there being no period after "Please no smoking"

I really can't believe shit like this happens all the time. I'll read magazines I pay $30-50 a year to subscribe to and find ridiculous amounts of mistakes. I mean how hard is is to print a couple out and have the whole staff take 3 hours to read it cover to cover?

I completely agree with you though. That shows a complete lack of professionalism. Maybe it was just a printer's joke or something but I doubt it.
