Having just got back to sleep, I was awoken again by a member of staff making their way down the corridor pushing a piece of paper under every door. Said piece of paper told me that "as you are aware, the fire alarm sounded earlier this morning" and went on to thank me for my co-operation in evacuating the building

The one time we had a buiilding evacuation exercise all the contracters were assigned the assembly point furthest away from the building.
We didn't see any firemen
On the other hand a nice waitress from a S*******s coffee shop handed round small cups of coffee (for free)
