May 21, 201412 yr Popular Post I took a taxi from Suvarnabhumi airport a few days ago and the sign on the back of the seat said the following. It's actually just a bad translation from Thai which said something like "If service staff are not polite please call this number", but I did find the translation rather ironic in it's mistaken honesty.

May 21, 201412 yr Sat down at a restaurant in China once and there was a sign there that said "Building is on fire." A bit of the same concept....
May 22, 201412 yr Wish they had the following warning on the back of a Nigerian cab I once took: "Just lie back and think of England" Because I was seriously screwed on that ride. T

May 22, 201412 yr In the back of a cab in Singapore was a sign saying "Stop human trafficking." I remember thinking "Why are they telling me?"
May 22, 201412 yr Wish they had the following warning on the back of a Nigerian cab I once took: "Just lie back and think of England" Because I was seriously screwed on that ride. T Screwed by a large Nigerian. I understand how painful that must have been for you, unable to sit down for a week.

May 22, 201412 yr Well, I wouldn't ring numbers like that - either they won't exist, won't be answered, won't be followed up or will be eventually answered in Thai. Complete waste of space. Edited May 22, 201412 yr by Card
May 22, 201412 yr In the toilet at Home Works, just above the urinals is another gem sign : " Please check your valuables before you leave." I normally shake my valuables after i've just had a Pi$$, so I was wondering if it was a spelling mistake or if the sign should have been put up somewhere else ?
May 23, 201412 yr In the toilet at Home Works, just above the urinals is another gem sign : " Please check your valuables before you leave." I normally shake my valuables after i've just had a Pi$$, so I was wondering if it was a spelling mistake or if the sign should have been put up somewhere else ? I guess you've never used the shelf above the urinal to place your shopping (valuables) on? Or seen other people put things there and nearly forget them like I have seen many times? That's what they're talking about... I remember those signs became fairly commonplace a few years ago after an incident involving a teenager leaving his watch in the toilet and later beating up the cleaning lady who had found it (and was presumably going to keep it.) I guess they didn't want any further repeats of such incidents and a sign helps to absolve responsibility. Edited May 23, 201412 yr by Glock3am
