All of these signs and bloopers are located in countries where English is a second language and in some instances in English speaking countries they are not much better.
Airport lounge sign reads: Ladies are requested not to have children in the bar!.
Furrier sign reads: Fur coats made for ladies from their own skin!.
Drycleaners sign reads: Drop your trousers here for best results!.
Hotel sign reads: You are invited to take advantage of the chambermaid!.

Years ago I stopped at a toll road rest area. There was a loud argument near the sinks among several women who did not speak English. A sign on the paper towel dispenser said WASH YOUR HANDS IT'S THE LAW. Put there for the food workers, but apparently taken extremely seriously by a group of women looking around for the hand washing police.
Many of these seem to come from China. I think all businesses should have access to a 'good English' government hotline to get their signs right.
gotta larf!
Happy Aloha to YOU
