man sitting: Oh, thanks, but I'm offering.
false advertising (should have written “want to” above “help”)
It’s funny how we automatically assume the right thing when we see an ambiguous sign like that. Like, nobody would walk up to a desk that says “Information” and say “so what do you want to know?”
In the English language it could be taken either way, unless it says offering or needing.
This is where punctuation is helpful.
