please use other door..

Every saturday morning at 9 o'clock I unlock the door to the store at the salon I work at. I move the "Please Use Other Door" sign to the side door that isn't supposed to be used while the store is open. I'm always entertained by the responses that little sign creates. I sit at my little reception desk and witness three basic reactions:

The first-

Woman walks to door, reads sign, turns around embarassed, doesn't say goodbye (although she hello when she arrived) and briskly walks out the correct door.

The second(most common)-

Woman walks to door, reads sign, turns around chuckling, feels compelled to tell me what they just did, explain that the salon is like a maze, and leaves.

The third(personal favorite)-

Woman walks to door, reads sign, disregards sign, and continues out the wrong door.

Although, I have to admit the last one takes a lot of guts, I think it's the most stupid reaction. These people have no idea why the signs there, it could be because an alarm will go off if that side door is used, but they don't care. They would rather keep truckin' than admit their fault and turn around.

It amazes me how the same little sign can create such different reactions.
