Funny Thing...

This morning, we all came to work with the sound of a ridiculous beep. It was so loud - no, really, you have no idea - and truly hurt all of our ears. We had Herb - on of the drives (our drivers are great by the way...not that they read this, but he needs props!) - checked into it for us. We all thought it was the smoke detector with low battery...well, that wan't it.

What could it be? Herb finally tracked down the ear shattering sound and determined that it was coming from the carbon monoxide detector. We thought that it just needed a battery changing. NOPE - it is hard wired and doesn't even use batteries. Herb then called the landlords of our building (we can keep them nameless since THEY SUCK) and told then the situation. They sounded really worried and said they woudl be right down. Herb unplugged the carbon monoxide detector so we could at least not go insane...and since the landlords were on their way.

What is funny...you may ask...is that it is now 3:15 and we called at 8:25 to get this problem checked out. Did they get lost? I doubt it...they are two buildings up from us. Do they want us to die? I would hope not, but my thoughts here are "obviously". I think we should go home...this seems like quiet the issue. However, we truck on - in hopes that our husbands do not get to use our life insurance policies.

If no one speaks to me in the next few days, send someone to the Red Cross Blood Services office in Mrogantown to see if we are alive. Who knows...we may all fall asleep on our desks and not wake up.

Onward!
