Ladders

Yesterday we went to OBI, where we bought paint and brushes and rollers and a ladder so that I can paint a couple walls. Only in Germany would a ladder come with an owner's manual in not just German but 9 other languages too. So I thought, being a responsible ladder owner, I better read the English part. The first part read, "Before using the ladder, from a health aspect, are you able to use the ladder?" and I stopped there.
