Bureaucracy at its finest, or, Your Tax Dollars at Work.
Today, during fourth period, i had just gotten sat down at my computer, and logged in, when suddenly an “emergency” assembly was called for the whole school. After much hustling and bustling, and murmurs of disasters that may have happened, the real reason for the assembly was called. I was shocked. Not 2, not 10, not 50, but ONE thermometer had broken in one room, so the entire school was evacuated, and that entire wing, up and downstairs, was quarantined, and lucky me, thats where all my crap was. When i got outside, i saw that for this one thermometer, they had brought in TWO full sized firetrucks, and an entire HAZmat truck and team, in addition to the fire cheif in his little patrol truck. FOR ONE **** THERMOMETER! i feel so safe now. while half the local firestation is here cleaning up a thermometer like its a plutonium bomb, someones house burns down because the firemen were too busy.
