Funny safety notice

Funny sign at work
Well, office administration where I work, in a move almost worthy of Metro's "No sh*t Sherlock" section, have taped up the above pictured sign at the foot of a flight of stairs on the ground floor of the building. Admittedly it's a quite strangely angled flight of stairs (on one side anyway), but not *hugely* out of the ordinary or anything, just a little abstract...The sign (with a header and footer of striped yellow and black warning tape) advises those that may consider an attempt at the treacherous climb (if in need of a handrail) should preferably use the side that actually has one (it's on the left btw)...

I can't help but wonder what on earth happened to necessitate this...We'll be putting stickers on things saying the likes of "Power cable, may contain dangerous levels of electricity, do not suck" if we aren't careful... ;)

See some previous funny office signs I have spotted here and here... ;)

Perhaps somebody used it as a bannister and got the skin of their palm ripped off by the jagged plaster?

I don't know why it's never been an issue until now, though. :)

Ah, now that is a possibility! Thank you anonymous!
