Now it&#8217;s 5:52 and I&#8217;m awake but this time due to the ineffective fire alarm.<\/p>\n<p>I might go so far as to say pointless and potentially dangerous fire alarm. A fire alarm that makes you clasp your ears to dull the pain of how loud they are is going to prevent you from getting out of bed and to safety. A fire alarm is designed to instill fear, not pain. Fear makes you rush.<\/p>\n<p>This fire alarm just angers me and wonder which moron set it off this time. Rather than fire alarms, an outdated warning system should have flashing lights or a twitter-like system. It could say something like &#8220;Fire in block L&#8221;, or &#8220;smoke detected in Block P&#8221; but unconfirmed as of yet. It could say &#8220;device fault&#8221;.\u00a0 It could also say &#8220;Fire in Kitchen&#8221; which did occur two days ago.<\/p>\n<p>A few months ago it was a candle in a room burning through onto a towel and potentially turning a small problem into a life-threatening situation.<\/p>\n<p>None of these matters. If I hear an alarm my first thought is &#8220;Who&#8217;s the idiot that set it off&#8221;, not &#8220;ah, maybe I should evacuate&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> &lt; 1<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minute<\/span><\/span>I&#8217;m suffering from complete apathy for fire alarms.
