I'm working thru a marketing cert via Google rn (working with the enemy) and I just learned how many ads we're exposed to on a daily basis!

Any guesses?

So many people don't read the most obvious "no entry" signs. I don't think they'll notice most advertising.

I wonder if signs have become less effective as a result of advertising. Have people become desensitized to things trying to grab their attention?

I watch people STEP OVER a sign that states "Elevator is in service" at least 3 every time. I watch people throw GARBAGE in a battery recycling bin, every day. When I ask if it was a battery they threw in there they say no, I just saw recycling on the bin. There is a picture, 50cmx50cm, with 8 different batteries on it. Either that or literacy has dropped to near 0
