Burnt Toast.

The fire alarm went off at the Marriott Library today due to burnt toast, we're assuming up in the staff breakroom. Me being security was in charge of doing roll-call for library staff and making sure everyone gets out of the building. I was dumbfounded by the sheer number of people that, even though the building was potentially on fire, felt that it was okay to lean against the building or just not leave at all. Me and the others in my department had to put ourselves at risk to heard out all the people that feel they're important enough they deserve a personal escort out of the building. After I did roll call for the staff, I came back and found that everyone was huddled up against the building and then just decided to go back in even though the alarms were going off. So I had to run in after them and inform them that they can't enter the building until the fire marshal releases it back to us. Then they all go upset and moaned and whined their way back out. I had to go and round up people that didn't leave and found people that had never left at all! They were still at the computer, listening to their ipods, and sleeping.

I hope I never get to the point where I put other people's lives at risk because my own life is "inconvenienced."
