Thanks for taking a pic of the Goldrusher sign!

Much better than before!

And thanks for taking a pic of X's one unpainted support.

I was wondering how many people noticed it. I believe that was in a break room, right? Maybe they left it unpainted to keep the room more...cheerful.

I liked how Tim said an employee took it upon himself to paint the sign. It looks like he did more than simply repaint it. Imagine if a Disney CM did something like that!
