The ‘other’ door

Out to lunch last weekend, we stopped by a restaurant in Manhattan. The sign that hung on the front doors – you know a pair of doors that opens in the middle- pointed towards the right and said ‘Use other door’. We walked all the way round the building and came back to the same door, there was no other door to enter.

Finally, we figured that they meant, use the other half from the ‘same pair’ of doors. You see, one in the pair was  being cleaned!

But it was such an overkill of instruction, since that was the most obvious thing to do if we hadn’t seen that sigh in the first place
