One fine morning, the fire alarm goes off at office and the instructions start to come in Dutch. I panickingly wait the english translation to follow. The voice asks me to rush to the nearest exit indicated without using the lifts. And the reaction I see to this on the few faces that are present there is an amused smile. The voice keeps repeating the same thing and what the hell no one seems to budge!. At last one of my supervisors comes and tells me that it was told in the beginning of the message not to take the fire alarm sounds seriously. Pity that this particular message was only in
Dutch!
