Today, we did a Fire Dill at work, which was fun. Read this post, if you have no idea what a Fire Drill is. We managed to evacuate the building in under 2 minutes, which is really good. Our customers were very cooperative and evacuated when the alarm sounded. Maria missed all the fun, as she came in late. However myself, Lucy, Bethan, Nigel, Kira and Anne, were all involved in the drill.
Thankfully, the weather wasn’t too bad, so we didn’t have to go to the assembly point in the pouring rain. However, Fires do not care if it is wet and dry… When the alarm sounds, it means evacuate, even if it’s wet!
Brown, Squidgy and Smelly
This afternoon, I had to deal with something rather nasty on the shop floor. I am not going to say what it is, but put it this way, it was squidgy, it was brown and it it smelt nasty. A pair of gloves, a carrier bag was what was needed. followed by the mop and bucket to wash the floor afterwards. This got me really angry, because it was caused by a 4 legged friend and the owner could not be bothered to clean up after their furry friend. I then also ended up banging my head on the shelves. I am OK, it was only minor, but it got reported anyway.
BIFFA Strike Again!
BIFFA are back in my bad books again, after blocking the fire exit again. I have taken a picture and sent it to Bethan. It clearly states by the gate, that it a fire exit, so BIFFA have no excuse to block it. Thankfully, I was able to shift the bins, before we did the Fire Drill. Either the Bin Men are blind or ignorant! (Or Both!)
The bin men should know better than to obstruct a fire exit. I was furious to find the fire exit blocked by the bins! If the bin men better not block the fire exit again, or I will shove my pricing gun where the light doesn’t shine!!!!! 😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬
Blowing in the Wind….
Finally, the bad weather has damaged the building. The roof of the bin compound has had it’s felt blown off. MSL are aware of this and should be coming to fix it, later this week.
