Sam worked in a warehouse that sold lamps. One afternoon, he saw a new colleague trying to lift a large box alone. The word 'LIGHT' was written across the top. Sam asked her to stop and offered to get a trolley.
'But the box says it is light,' said the colleague, Mina. Sam explained that the word described the product inside, not the weight. There were six heavy metal lamps in the box. Mina stepped back and read the smaller label on its side.
Together, they put the box on the trolley and moved it to the packing table. Mina said the large word was confusing, especially during her first week. Sam agreed. Even he had read it too quickly at first.
Their team leader gave them a thick black pen. They added the weight beside the product name and wrote 'Use trolley' underneath. Later, Mina used the same trolley for another box. This time, she checked every side before moving it.
