This Is Why There Are Warning Labels
About twice a year or so, the beauty department I work in will get completely rearranged to make way for new products and brands. It’s an extremely tedious process because, usually, we clean off all the shelves while we’re at it.
The pusher trays used to hold things like lipstick are notoriously hard to clean, so I get the idea to use compressed air to get the dust out. It works amazingly, and my coworkers go and grab their own cans.
Me: “You know how to use it, right?”
Coworker: “Yeah. I mean, it’s pretty self-explanatory.”
He then proceeds to shake the can.
Me: “Stop! What are you doing?”
Coworker: “What do you mean?”
Me: “Look at the can and read the warning label.”
Coworker: “‘Warning, pressurized air. Do not shake for risk of bodily injury.’ Oh.”
