Any Fortune 500 company that allows their employees to use Comic Sans needs to be re-evaluated.

Multiple exclamation marks, all caps, /and/ Comic Sans? Clearly a deranged person.
The only thing worse than this is Papyrus.

haha! Thanks! You’re Hired!
Real Fortune 500 companies don’t randomly capitalize words. Looks like someone’s trying to make their company appear more important than it is.
They’re probably in the Misfortune 500 class of business instead.
As a business journalist, I must respond: Hahahahaha!
Tell it to the Fortune 500 CEO who just sent staffers a memo about how the company will be represented at the “Upfront Selling Season” in New York. (Hint: None of those words should be capped.)
I get memos and releases from Fortune 500 companies all day long, and their execs and staff run about average — or below — in these matters. Corporate communications directors are a bit better, but most are quite capable of irrational capitalization.
At least all the words on this (rather amusing) sign are spelled correctly.
I can absolutely concur that even possession of an MBA does not auto-magically grant one mad writing skillz. Usually, you’re grateful for something that’s merely coherent when it comes down from Management.
AMEN!
OH COME ON! COMIC SANS ROCKS!!
If you’re twelve…
Font Nazis Suck.
No kidding. That person should leave them a reply paper that says, “We are a Fortune 500 Company, not a waiting area for an emergency room for those with poles up their asses.” And the fact that they made the time to print that paper while working at said company says something about them. I bet they uploaded it here too. *Steps off soapbox*
I don’t know about you, but I sure feel more important if I use lots of random capital letters and extra exclamation points. Must be the gateway drug to micromanagement.
I really liked Comic Sans when I was 14. I’ve grown out of it. I feel silly using a font that makes me think of clowns and children, neither of which I like.
Comic Sans is the Best. Font. EVAR.
What is the difference between a Fortune 500 company and a lemonade stand?
These days, not much.
Yes there is! My 401k at my old Lemonade Stand is still worth something.
*snerk* Win. ^^
What kind of snooty, elitist, time- and paper-wasting schmuck found it necessary to admonish people for choosing a certain font? Someone who clearly needs actual work to do. And, the place to post that shouldn’t be on the door, but the copier/printer.
TL; DR
Come on, 4 lines are too long for you? what are you? eight or something?

Please don’t write passive agressive signs…THANK YOU.
But hey, Comic Sans is good for some things! Like comics! Don’t hate it, it only wants to be your frwiend…I use it all the time on my comic. Don’t be a hater.
Please do not use Inappropriate Capitals. You are Not German.
But if you capitalize Lemonade Stand then it does become a Fortune 500 company.
