The latest assertions on how we can bend workplace culture toward greater creativity and innovation.

SnapThoughts 8/3/07

It’s been just over a month since I’ve done SnapThoughts, so here’s a few more:

Skydiving Lessons

I wish I could have gotten a better picture of this, but we were traveling 70 mph.  In the dead tree there is a sign that reads “Skydiving Lessons ###-####”.  I don’t know about you, but when I think about skydiving, the last thing I want to envision is something hanging awkwardly in a tree.

Infant? Pain Reliever

This is pain reliever for infants.  Why is the age (upper-right corner of box) restricted to toddlers then?

Bank Line

The physical act of banking seems so antiquated.  Which line should I get in?  Sure, cashier lines in stores have the same problem… but it’s compounded in a car.  If I choose a line and another lane opens up, it’s much harder to maneuver to the open slot.  So, most cars just hang back and wait (like I’m doing here).  Not efficient.

ATM Scars

Another example from drive-thru banking.  See all the scars on this ATM barrier.  Looks like it did its job in protecting the ATM machine.  But what about all the customers’ cars?  Couldn’t something more friendly be done that wouldn’t damage customer cars?

Drive-Thru Trash Can

Moving from drive-thru to drive-in (Sonic Drive-Ins). How is this trash can supposed to be used?  You have to pull into the left lane of the entrance/exit and block incoming traffic.

Mailboxes

One of these mailboxes belongs to A-1 Trucking.  Can you guess which one?
