Retail Problem #3

Although my posts may seem like rants sometimes , this one had to be made. One of the most FRUSTRATING things which i experienced was the question "Excuse me where is the bathroom?"  Although this is such an innocent question it can become a trigger after awhile.
Forget about retail for a hot second. Wherever you go in a public place with a restroom there is normally a bunch of SIGNS indicating where the closest restroom is. So why is retail any different.

When walking into a store normally there are signs posted saying RESTROOMS with an arrow pointing in the direction. These signs are normally CLEAR and BOLD with BRIGHT colors like red. This means that they CANNOT and SHOULD NOT be missed. Despite the effort of the store to alert the customers of where the bathrooms are, there are always those straggler customers who are maybe somewhat confused by the signs and need further help.

Of course this is not the hugest problem in the world and it could be a simple mistake when someone can't find the bathroom but this post serves to shed light on the fact that people need to observe their surrounding in a better manner. And one of the ways to do that is if you need to use the bathroom in a public place please first look for the signs because that is what they are there for.
