except after hours, and then we lock them. we lock the doors when we close at the end of the working day Explanation: A play on words - mildly humorous - meaning "We have been open since the company was founded, but, in truth, we do actually lock the doors when we close down for the night." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 mins (2015-01-19 13:19:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "We have been open since the company was founded" could be considered to mean that the stores have been open 24 hours a day and 365 days a year since 1954. To qualify this statement, which nobody would really consider to mean precisely that, someone added the tag line saying "Although we say that, we do actually close and lock the doors at night when we close the store" |
