A recent report by kids waiting to be picked up from the park, and bored parents in playgrounds has found that the green plastic power boxes found in council parks actually make for a great seat.
These revelations comes as a surprise to many, considering the signage that suggests it is highly dangerous to do so.
“I’ve never heard of anyone getting electrocuted on one of these bad boys” said local dad, Eddie.
“Like, the picnic tables are always taken and I’m not just gonna stand here for forty minutes while my kids play on the playground”
Eddie’s comments were backed up by several grade cricketers who also admit to pulling up a stump on the electricity pillars when they forget their picnic chairs.
“Yeah, as long as you don’t put all your body weight on it. It’s all good, right?” said one lower grade opening batsman, Pez.
“Yeah, it’s gotta be more of a lean than a sit. But I’ve never heard of anything dangerous happening”
However, while the it appears most citizens appear willing to throw caution to the wind when it comes to the small plastic council boxes, it’s pretty clear that the big steel ones are worth avoiding altogether.
“Yeah, I’m not an idiot” says local dad Eddie, while playing candy crush.
“Those big steel ones are dangerous”
