Thank You The MGMT by hmrpita (Lenore)

June 18th, 2007 9:24 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Make an official looking but contradictory sign.
Sign it "Thank you The MGMT"

Example: No waiting in lobby.
Thank you the MGMT

Hang it in a public place and document it with a photograph.
Go back later and see if it still there.

An attendant prowled
in a crowded laundromat.
What was I thinking?

I made my escape.
I will return tomorrow.
I hope it's still there.

Update:
As promised, I returned today, June 19, and from the other end of the row of spotless machines, there it was, being all obvious. This time there were only a couple of people doing laundry and a different attendant. She eyed me suspiciously, so I pretended to be comparing the cost per wash of the various washing machines. As I walked out:
*hand on chin* "Hmmm, so this one is $2.25...Hmmmm. Oh, why it is $2.50 for that one...."
(The one I placed the sign on costs $2.00, for those of you keeping score at home. Updated picture below.)

Updated Update:
June 25th: Alas, the sign has been removed.

- smaller

Behold the coin-operated washer.

A closer behold of the sign.

Blurry and barely readable, but there it is!

Blurry and barely readable, but there it is!

This time the washer was in use--clearly a person unconcerned about official-looking signs from the MGMT! Bah!

Thank you # Fah King 1 (even though it isn't a sticker--it's just taped on).

Thank you for your two cents, Ariock Knight of Chaos.

No, Kristen Rutherford, I do not! Go peddle your wares elsewhere!

Thank you parker sullivan--I am just about to leave the house and go find out. I bet you are right. It was the cleanest laundromat I have ever been in.
