Read the signs please
I worked in a garage / parts and accessories shop.
One day this chap came up to me at the desk and presented me with a lawnmower. "it needs a service and tune up"
I told him we didnt do this kind of work and maybe he should try elsewhere, but he was having none of it. "yes, you do, I want it serviced". He was adamant - no argument would sway him, servicing lawnmovers was what we did.
"It says so on the sign outside"
"eh? what sign?"
"Look chief, its written in 4 foot high letters on the front of the building - YOU BLOODY WELL DO SERVICE GARDEN TOOLS"
"show me this sign"
we go outside where he triumphantly points out the sign..."SEE `Garden servicing`, now fix my mower."

"err, that says `GARAGE servicing` sir, not `garden`"

"ah, well its a bit misleading isnt it?"
