You’ve Gotta Be Fucking Kidding Me… Stairway Drills?


Just got an email from the office coordinator that there is a mandatory stairway drill today at 10:30 as required by NYC law. Fuck NYC for wasting 10 minutes of my life by teaching me how to walk down a couple of steps. This is a waste of my time. I actually have to stop what I’m doing to practice walking down 4 flights of steps while some building fire marshall hardo thinks he’s the shit and can save everyone if something happens. This is bogus.

Here’s how to leave a building during an emergency:

  1. Shit goes down (fire, etc)
  2. Walk down stairs.
  3. Leave building, proceed to bar
  4. Live*

Assuming all stairwells are not blocked. If they are, you’re fucked anyway and this drill still was helpless to you.

It’s that simple, idiots.
