Ladder

As I was holding a ladder for a window-cleaner today, I was reading the label on the side of the ladder. On the bottom was a notice: “DO NOT MISUSE OR ABUSE THE LADDER.”

It warns us against abusing the ladder? Since when does a company care about the product in the hands of the consumer, especially when there isn’t anything about warranty on the ladder? I can see misuse because of liability issues, but I can’t see a company caring more about abuse of a warranty-free ladder. Consumer’s loss…

Unless there’s an anti-abuse ladder vigilante group at large, which they may have hinted at in a subtle manner.

Naaaahhh…….
