This happened a lot when I went to school. It's really irresponsible as it wastes the school's money, and could potentially cause someone to die if left unattended to.

Sigh.

Um... Excluded? Is that like being expelled? I've never had that term being used for punishment in my school.Captain Pancake said:Today wasn't a good day. before I'd even made it to tutor in school, The fire alarm went off. This was a bit worrying, as usually there isn't a drill until midday. So I made my way out to the tennis courts where the groups assemble. After a head count and an all-clear, we made our way back in. But before I'd made it 20 meters back into the school building, the alarm went off again, forcing me back to the assembly point. This went on and off throughout the entire first period. Throughout the rest of the day, there were intermittent alarms forcing us through the same arduous routine another 3 times that day. Here comes the annoying part: It was not faulty electronics, no sir, It was immature 3rd and 4th year students who thought It would "be a laugh" to pull the lever. The culprits were found and excluded. Now here's the sad part: The fire brigade has to respond if the alarm is activated, costing 2 grand a pop. During one of the incidents, There was a car crash in west calder, An area of my town a few miles from my school. As the fire engine was on it's way to aid the victims, It was recalled and diverted to our school, as it was deemed a high-priority. So the crash victims were left there, as the fire brigade was forced to investigate a non existent fire. I don't know about you, but that seems like a huge waste of time, resources, and patience. Any comments, or condemnations?
