Seems a little unfair as far as entertainment goes.
I'd have thought those kids already have enough to contend with.
Gaffes. Published. Especially by those that should know better.

U R now out of Europe
Since the eighties, the Erasmus Programme has provided foreign exchange options for students from within the European Union.
The marketing people have clearly been impressed with the church banners that read
What's missing?
UR
So much so that they decided to use the same idea with their posters.
You'd think that, after 30 years of working in Europe, they'd at least be able to spell it.

Poopermarket jobs
It's not clear whether these would be your weekly toilet break allowances or the average number of that type of customer you might encounter each week.

Whosayswedon'tneedproofreaders?
We're continuing our journey through California with Jon C by way of Stanford University's shuttle bus where this notice is very prominently, if not so proudly, displayed.
As soon as I saw it I started humming this tune in my head. Hope you enjoy the trip back to 1974.

Keep left, right?
Thanks to Trev L for sharing this one, though I'm not sure where it originated.
But I'd have loved to have been there to witness the result.

Alcoholic drink
Like Jon C (that's his reflection again!), I'm not sure whether this root beer is made in the presence of an alcoholic or whether the alcoholic is one of the ingredients.

This is shop
I challenge you to read this poster in anything other than a foreign accent.
At least they apologise for their verbal diarrhoea.

Small-minded
You should always check the small print. Even if it's invisible to the naked eye.
Here's a poster on a BART platform that Jon C came across.
The usual 'terms and conditions apply' disclaimer is at the bottom right. However, it's so small we've had to enlarge it for you.
But, if you think that's small, check out the asterisk next to it, and then try and find the text to which the asterisk refers.
Here's a clue. Even at the full poster size you'd need a magnifier.

Hump day
To round off Jon C's highly successful TorontoTypoTour, he presents this sign.
Want to ride the camel?
Unfortunately, if you've an inconvient weight, you've an inconvient wait.

Be prepared
Thanks to Trev L for finding this at apostrophecatastrophes.com
Like a good Scout, you should always Be Prepared.
Just in case you turn up to work at Walmart and they ask you to produce a poster.

Management style
Thanks to Craig C (@TheSiteReader) for sending this one in.
A spokesperson - no, it was definitely a spokesman - is believed to have said, 'We're the new bosses here and we'll not be having any of that pc nonsense in this hotel.'

Copy that
You've heard the stories about the photocopying sessions at the office party.
Well, this company advises against it.
But it clearly has no issue with other forms of reproduction.

Coconut shy
The Meadowbank Countdown store in Auckland, New Zealand had some explaining to do on Tuesday when a customer alerted its staff to the special offer it was promoting.
