FIRE DRILL
Next week, we are anticipating a fire drill in our office building. To think of scrambling down 38th floors' flight of steps made me cringe.
I told Sugar, I rather be burnt to death.

2) No one is to start the evacuation other than instructed by the Fire Marshal
3) Attendance will need to be taken at the car park area. So please don’t go wandering around
Ps. You may want to get a pair of jogging shoes ready for the long walk down

Get yourself a fire escape winch (with ropes for 38 floors). Hook it securely to your office window frame or anchor it properly to the wall.
Winch yourself slowly down and enjoy the breathtaking view coming down!

38 floors is a good workout. but fire drills are conducted for a reason . Go for a cup of teh tarik after the drill – think of it as a break from work. hehe.

I remember there’s a bomb scare in my building once. We had fun. We went ronda at KLCC for nearly 2 hours until one of our associates called us to go back to office.
