Title: Today, for the first time in my life..............
Post by: Vamps on 13 March 2014, 21:04:43
I had to break the glass in the fire alarm at work, always wanted to do that............ :y :y

A female colleague came into my office and said that she thought there was a problem in the kitchen, greeted by smoke in the ceiling, loads of wires in there, and that smell of burning wires and the lights had gone out; we gathered our bits and the deed was done, took me 3 goes with a hole punch........ ::) ::)

It was glorious out today....... ;D ;D

It's not something I've ever done either. I've discharged a fire extinguisher in anger though.  :y

You are only supposed to push the glass in with your thumb. No need to get you heels out and bash the glass in!  :D

Not sure throwing said mouse was an accident, merely the 'hitting the fire alarm with it part' ;D
