So the day started like any other. Everyone piled into the office, people grabbin coffee, and some water cooler chat.
Adam (NOS2Go4me) and I were talking bout his bitch of a motherboard when suddenly we hear this loud crackle. Thought for a second it was our network servers going for a dump. Then 2 seconds later the lights go out. Weird...
At first, we thought it was just a busted breaker, no biggie. Then 2 seconds later, all the power goes down, lights and all. :ph34r:
So I looked outside and their were fire trucks at our office and everything. Maybe the fire alarm got set off.
Well, one thing led to another and before we knew it, firetrucks were on site, cops were blocking the street, and we were told to go home for the day.
Seems there was an Electrical fire in the building just right of us and the result of that fire knocked out some transformers on the poles near the office.
So in the end, I'm sitting here at home while NOS had to stay and look after the computer system when the fire marshall lets people back in. Poor guy. :P
What an exciting morning. I think I'm going to hit the pub. :beer:
