Human Factors 101… when you see it (a virtual error trap)

shower trap

There is a common phrase in Human Factors Engineering… “Error Trap.” This is the image we will put next to this phrase in my new book… (i.e., an actual real-life “error trap” door).

Scenario:

Your singing your favorite song in the shower. The spouse needs to go down to the basement and start a load of clothes in the washer.

They open the door BUT DO NOT CLOSE IT, and you finish your shower… you can imagine that first step is a real doozy.
