You have a sign - say 12ft long x 2ft high.
You spray it luminous yellow.
You display the words "DANGER TO PEDESTRIANS" and "NO ENTRY" on it in 1ft high, bold, black letters.
You place it next to an entrance marked "BUSES ONLY".
You park 15 buses in a line, ready to reverse on the inside of the entrance.
You will then spend the day making announcements over a PA system to people who think it is ok to walk through the entrance and along behind the buses.
You will argue with workmen who get cross with you for frantically yelling and gesturing for them to return to safety, whilst they stand in a blind spot for bus drivers, when a bus is due, with no high vis jacket, saying they know "all about safety".
You will feel your blood pressure rise with every person who says: "I didn't see any sign!"
You will go home a nervous wreck and cry into your own high vis jacket - wondering why Darwin can no longer be allowed to take his course in today's legal culture.
You will be sorely tempted to replace the sign with a high voltage electric current equipped with motion sensors when you return to work.
But no matter what, you must resist, keep smiling, apologising and reciting: "its health and safety, I'm afraid!"
Trust me.
