best sign ever
At a burger king restaurant there was a sign that read "picture menus available upon request" So I ask the person at the register what the picture menus were for? She said that they were for people who couldn’t read! So I asked her how they would know that you had picture menus? She looked at me like I was stupid and said "they would read the sign" I simply said "OK" and ordered my lunch, remembering not to argue with a fool as the listener doesn’t know they are wrong.

Thats as good as seeing the sign that says Braille menu available in the drive thru at McDonalds
Or one of my personal favorites would be for Dirty Dicks Crab Shack in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, all it says is " I Got My Crabs From Dirty Dicks"

When I worked at the Grand Canyon we had to have Braille on our door signs, and we were a sightseeing helicopter operation. Why would a blind person go sight seeing?
I guess they could bring their dog!!!!!

Because the buttons are mass produced and they are normally made for inside machines where blind people can walk.
Why go to the expense of making special buttons for drive thru machines ?

here in the states, we have a government that will spend 50 million to redesign the penny so it is easier to identify it from a quarter.

I still don't get it...every burger king I ever went to had pictures of every meal available hanging behind the cash register.
I smell the work of dirty rotten lawyers here. Some civil rights group probably sued BK claiming discrimination against non-english speaking or illiterate people.
