Interesting thought/comment on the contrast vs white on clear glass. I've wondered about that myself as that's how I've seen many signs. I obey them but is white on clear contrasting? I might need to go ask in the "fashion thread" where we were discussion color coordinating holsters.thestudiokid wrote:Actually, I did have the discussion with the GM, but he actually brought it up when he noticed the direction of the sign as we were talking about it just outside in the service bay. This issue came up because the sign was posted on inside of the door to the service department, facing inward. It was backwards when you walked in from outside. When you enter, you immediately face left to address the service writer and the sign is correctly viewed to your immediate left at that point. Legal / ni-legal ... who knows. It was correctly posted at the other two entrances I scoped out. The issue of contrast was that it was white letters on clear glass and hard to read, even up close. Again a grey area.Vol Texan wrote:Jerry,jerry_r60 wrote:I know that this is not the main thrust of your post but as you hang around in here I think you will find, it's not in our best interest to suggest correcting invalid signs. I think most if not all of us like the idea of educating on the difference between 30.07 and 30.06 but it doesn't help us to make sure businesses put up compliant signs. I'm not advocating walking passed a non-compliant sign but if I happened to miss it or for whatever reason I end up going in and something happens, I'd prefer the sign had been left invalid.thestudiokid wrote:Hi all. Yep, forum newb here. Post #1....
"Good morning, this is Seth, General Manager at Hiley Hyundai.....I also addressed the compliance of our signage with him as far as the way the signs were facing and them not being on contrasting backgrounds and that will be fixed"
Again, I'm not advocating waking passed an invalid sing and I do support your main point of educating on the difference between30.07 and 30.06.
I do agree with you that very few of us suggest educating them about non-compliant signs. However, the quote above in the OP was from a letter that the OP received, where the manager had the discussion with the owner... The OP didn't say that he had the discussion.
Generally I agree 100% and in most cases, I wouldn't bring it up.
