Our building had a fire drill today and because it wasn't mandatory most of us opted not to leave the desk for it. I mean, come on! We work in finance and are therefore far too important and busy to leave our precious work!

So the only person who actually left was our admin, who was trying to lead by example since the powers that be had designated her as the floor-fire warden. She turned out to be the smartest of us all though because not only did she get to cut out early she didn't have to try to work through the strobe lights and incessant shrieking of the fire alarm for a good fifteen minutes. I really thought I was going to throw up before it finally stopped.

People blow that off until there really is a fire, and wish they knew what the hell to do.

Gotta do the right thing, even the little tiny annoying things.

Very true. I was actually really look forward to it (because I thought we'd get to leave early after it since it was so close to the end of our day anyway) but no one else left so I didn't want to look like a bum haha.
