Too many instructions, too much detail

"Please leave these toilets in the state in which you would expect to find them.. So says a sign in the at the site I'm training at in London commuter land at the moment. Not having great faith in people, I would expect to find them in a bit of a mess ... and so I have a conundrum. Do I follow the instruction to the letter and make a mess, or do what I think it was meant to say.

Route - Any Permitted route From a rail ticket on Wednesday morning. Why print on the "Any permitted route". Surely that's always the case and doesn't need to be stated?

I'm so glad that we have a minimal signage policy!
