Fun at work

[godream]

There was an announcement earlier this morning warning us that they were testing the fire alarms. Oh, great, I think, we'll be inundated with loud sirens for the rest of the day, just what I always wanted.

I was, as often happens, wrong. Instead of loud sirens, we have blinking lights. Seriously. I haven't heard a sound yet but every couple of minutes the bulbs on the fire alarms start flashing frantically. They're very bright and thoroughly obtrusive, which I guess is kind of the point. Nevertheless, I'm this close to going insane and hitting homestarrunner.com to download the music to throw a lightswitch rave, a la The Cheat.

If nothing else happens today, maybe I'll dig up the computer department digital cameras and stick a long chatty new building photo post in lincolnsudbury...

"We installed that lightswitch so you could turn the lights on and off, not so you could have lightswitch raves!"
...or something like that.

Exactly! Except in this case it's more, "We installed that fire alarm so that deaf people could get safely out of the building in an emergency, not so you could have ... um ... fire alarm raves!" :D
