Caption This: Emergency Exit

04/27/2021 7:00 AM

On the left you can see the regulation required emergency exit instructions to assist people in safely leaving the building in case of an emergency. Instructions have all sorts of arrows pointing in all sorts of directions. In addition, as an aid in understanding the instructions, a north arrow is provided that points south.

To the right you can see the double wide, all glass front doors to the outside world.

I would hope this map doesn't replace having EXIT signs above the doors!

Looks like "Lazy Joe" wanted to have a "one sign fits all" solution to the emergency evacuation plan he was told to develop and post.

The Cavalier was a front wheel drive vehicle. That's a rear drive. It's likely more valuable than a Cavalier.

I've seen that illustration other places, often with the caption "I'm going to restore it."

On reflection: can you tell me the make of the tires, they seem to have held up pretty well.

Judging by the length of the rust pile it was probably a truck, not a car.

See how much rust is behind the rear wheels?

There are several doors that open TOWARD the exiting persons. That is illegal I believe, after some theater fires decades ago that killed a bunch of people when they piled up against doors that opened toward them! What this place needs is a custom sign for each location; I know someone above commented that it is a universal sign for all locations!--saves labor but would help population reduction.

The logic of the Crazy Ant. Yes, that's their name because of their apparently illogical frantic random movements.

Follow the red arrows until you're safe outside. Beware some doors may be locked.

Exit the building at your own risk. All doors lead to perdition.
