Dammit people: can't we go a WEEK without a fire alarm??

Totally sick right now of climbing down ten flights of stairs only to reach the ground floor, barely touching my hand on the door to the outside world, and then having to turn back around as the alarm turns off, leaving me in a glut of people all trying to crowd back into the elevators so we can go sit in our desks and stew for a while before the next bell inevitably rings, which I'm sure it will, probably tomorrow, if the pattern holds. (**breath**) GAHHHHH.

Worse still than unnecessarily having to battle the crowds in elevators and stairwells is that on every floor, the fire alarm bell is tuned just slightly differently than the one on the floor before. This means that you're not only hearing an irritating, ear-piercingly loud drone, you're hearing an irritating, ear-piercingly loud and increasingly OFF-KEY drone. OK, I'm done complaining now. Just had to get that off my chest.
