Fire drill.
Fire warden and boss, "Okay, we're going to have a fire drill. I want everyone to get up and leave their work areas. Proceed calmly to the stairs and walk -don't run - in an orderly fashion to the ground floor. The assembly point is the car park. Any questions?"
Me, "Yes. I'm a human and reserve the right to act as the dumb, flighty, panicked animal that being human means. Who are you to tell me to overcome millions of years of human evolution and instict that kept our ancestors alive?"
FW&B, "Why do you have to make things so difficult?"
