Eureka! Life just got simple. See stairs, take them, lose weight. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry? Signs persuade shoppers to take the stairs says a recent article .
Maybe it’s just that we're so overprogrammed that people only see the part of the sign that says take the stairs and they do. Like the Beverly Hillbilly’s doorbell when Grandma used to say "What a coincidence, every time I hear that sound there’s visitors at the door".
How many times have you heard the story of the visitor to New York who saw a sign that said 'Stand Here' and soon there's a line of people behind him. Then why doesn’t the warning on cigarettes work? Or the one that says employees must wash hands before…?
Well, lets not look a gift horse in the mouth. Let’s print up a batch of signs that says 'Take the stairs, it’s good for you!'. Personally I think you’ll have elevator repair men calling.
