You can custom make them on Publisher or other simple software. Then just send the file to the printer using yellow card stock. Use painters tape to hang the on doors or walls.

Tried that but hotel I Service didn’t appreciate me sticking them were walkers would see them. They ask for V shape floor signs. Otherwise black ink on school bus yellow stock paper would be a money saver.

LOL

The 3 footers are my favorite. The 2 footers are ok but it's impossible not to see a 3 footer.

I bet someone could make a small fan for about $100 that could be adapted to fit those signs.

Cool idea but we use them mostly around hoses.

We tape the card stock signs on doors and chairs to let people know the floor is wet. Airmovers if needed would be bigger.

One other thing I do in nursing homes is to place a 4’ x 6’ walk off mat where the carpet and tile meet. No chance of wet shoes then. And dang if those old bluehairs don’t plow my signs anyhow!

We have our guys repeatedly warn the customer about the slip & fall hazards associated with having their home cleaned. During the walk through the customer has to sign a slip & fall disclaimer acknowledging he or she has been told about it.

Today I had a crew working as normal, do the walk through, discuss the hazards, get the disclaimer signed, and begin cleaning. As the crew is finishing room by room the assistant is moving the air mover to each room. He moves it to the Livingroom and not 5 minutes later the customer trips over the power cord and busts her head open.

I’m talking on the phone to the husband and the 1st thing he says is “what is your insurance information”.... Yes I am fully aware that our insurance will cover this but at what point is customers negligence our fault? Both the husband and wife admit that they were repeatedly told to be careful, not to walk across the wet carpet and that we had placed a fan down as we were completing areas. To make it even better they felt like they should not have to pay the $228 invoice because of the accident.

Hopefully nobody here is a politician or a lawyer because GD they have stripped common sense and personal responsibility from our culture. Sorry for the rant but that crap makes my head hurt.

If they feel they should not have to pay the invoice gladly offer to go back and give them back their dirt...
Hopefully they have paid but if not I wouldn’t let them get away with it. Even with their disregarded negligence.

You need to put signs up that say," if you fall on your fooking ass and hurt yourself, it's not our fault". People will notice those ones. Put Chavez's phone number on the bottom.
