Midday Update: People are dumb.

So I just found out that last night my boss locked someone in the store.

We always close at six and it's not like we shut off the lights then haul ass. There is a process, shutting down registers, locking up, putting away the money etc.

Well apparently this was all done, but someone was crouched down in the books and it didnt occur to them that the store was closed when the music was shut off and the lights were off.

She apparently was virtuous though, because after she realised that she was locked in and let herself out (thusly setting off the alarms) stayed put to explain to the groundskeeping head (a real ruler-slapper nun named Sister Georgeann) what had happened.

They called the alarm company to say that all was well and an accident, but the alarm company said "Oh well, we didn't call the police, we called the fire department and they are on their way."

Which doesn't make sense, as it was a burglar alarm, but whatevs.

So she goes outside and sees not one, but THREE fire trucks pulling up with the firefighters getting out with axes in hand.

Axes! Wow!

I told my boss I was super glad I wasn't the one who closed up last night. HA!
