Arrows on stairs

How wonderful that the owners of my office building felt it necessary to put arrows on the stairs to tell you where to go. I'm assuming this is in case of emergency. Like you're smelling smoke and passing through the emergency door and you're panicked and you're thinking "Which way is down?!! Which way is down!!??"

I wonder if these were placed because of a law suit. Like the warning label on disposable coffee cups that tell you that coffee is hot and you might get burned... because someone burned themselves on hot coffee... and they were surprised.

The basis for the suit must have been "When I was coming out of the emergency exit, I didn't know how to get out of the building so I went up... and up... and up... and I found myself on the roof... and there were flames!!! And it was horrible!!! And I died!!! Give me some money."

I really want to get in there early one morning before anyone else and reverse all these arrows... or at least make the ones on the right go up and the ones in the middle go sideways. Or maybe I'll replace them all with those little feet that show you how to dance. So in case of emergency you must salsa your way to safety... or rumba... or fox trot.

Nope... I'm wrong... the arrows need to be placed so they lead you straight into a wall... or sway back and forth... or lead to a big X on the floor with a pirate spelling of "treshur" beside it.

Nope... got it... on Monday I'm just going to make more of these things and continue them out of the stairwell all the way to where I park my car and then go back and have them start from my desk and lead to the stairwell door. Yep... that's it. Totally do-able.
