Signs need to be politically correct so they do not offend
“I drove by a road work site on Main Street near El Toro School in Morgan Hill. The work crew had put up a large orange sign that said ‘Men at Work.’ These work trucks had the City of Morgan Hill logo on the side. Women can and do work in construction nowadays, as well as serve as Secretary of State, CEOs and now can even engage in combat for the U.S. military. Isn't it about time to retire these antiquated ‘Men at Work’ signs and replace them with ‘Workers Ahead’ or something less offensive?”
