Pointless Wet Paint Sign

Why not just put the sign right on the green box where the wet paint is? Or even on the pole above the green box. By the time you see the sign, you're already walked past the green box and possibly touched it or leaned on it while waiting for the bus or the light to change. This can't continue. How many people have to lean on it and ruin their clothes before we do something? How many? This might be a conspiracy by local clothing stores to drive up business. I'm not investigating any further for fear of mafia reprisal. I watch Sopranos, I know how these people operate. However, if anyone's looking for a Wet Paint Sign Placement Supervisor, my resume is posted.
