Owner - "Ok, now that we're all outside the building for this fire drill, go stand in groups of your department and let your manager make sure you're all here."
*general milling about*
Owner - "Ok, sales department. You guys missing anyone?"
Several people at once - "Yes. Our manager."
Receptionist - "You shouldn't have warned him about this fire drill, he left for the afternoon."
Owner - "Oh. Well. Anyone else?"
*everyone shrugs*
Receptionist - "We're down two salesguys. If there were a real emergency, they'd be dead by now. When you guys figure out a system that actually works, I'll be at my desk. Oh, and the new system should probably include having alarm bells on the second floor of the building. Just a thought, and you can quote me. Peace."

during our earthquake drills (and remember i *do* work in a school) we are supposed to get under our desks.
but people keep putting stuff under my desk for storage, so i just sit on the floor and eat apple rings till the horrible alarm sounds stop.
