Signage of the Apocalypse #4

Widows in every room

There's nothing I like better than mistakes in posters of stuff for sale or rent. Particularly when they are posted in a building full of 1,000 journalists.

The Canadian Broadcasting Centre has bulletin boards by each elevator, each jammed with ads for various things for sale. People waiting for the elevators have plenty of time to mull them over, and plenty of time to make editorial suggestions.

Here's one I noticed today, with the comments added by a helpful editor.
