Event Recap:
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire.
Hey wait….that’s our roof…..
About 10:00am this morning one of my managers comes running around the corner and lets everyone know there is smoke coming out of the vents!
Then all of a sudden the fire alarm goes off and everyone is wondering if this is a drill or the real thing.
People start scrambling for their belongings and the exits.
5 minutes after the alarm goes off the fire department shows up to to check things out and save the day.
(Yes all the girls at my company all swooned when they got there.)
While the fire fighters are getting ready to clear the building we see the owners of the company dive back into the building.
[I bet you are thinking the owners ran back in to see if everyone was ok....they actually wanted to grab all the expensive servers we just bought.]
At around 10:20 the firefighters finally get a crane set up and approach the building from the roof. Of course by now my female coworkers are in a frenzy and keep telling me to take pictures of the hot firefighters.
The firefighters eventually get onto the roof and they’re able to check out the fire. We later find out the fire started out because of an electrical short and are allowed back into the building. We all give out a collective *sigh of relief*
My coworker, “I’ll ride that any day.”
First thing I noticed about the crane was the American Flag.
What a crazy day at work….it makes me wonder what will be in store for the rest of the week.
So how was your day?

my life is soooo mundane
wOw wat a day!
me? bored at work..just an ordinary day…
MMm firefighters yay
at least you didnt get hurt!
(hug)
Awesome!
I used to wish for firedrills and dream / PRAY for the school to burn down. Those were fun.
your entries never cease to amuse/entertain me! keep up the great entries…
–just a passerby… =)
Definitely not as exciting as yours. It’s beautiful out, though. I would much rather be basking in the sun then stuck in here slithering away.
Was the electrical short from the new, expensive servers? :tongue:
Wow…gotta love them fire fighters…mmmmmmmm….mmmmmm some more…they always come work out at the same gym I go to and always go on the ellipticals in front of me….it’s one of the best views ever. Makes my workout more fun. Know what I mean Lan? Good thing you guys were ok…I’d probably panic and run into walls if I was there.
Sorry I didn’t pick up your call last night. You called me while I was in class. You do that alot. =) I called you back though…ok take care homie!
glad you’re safe
sounds pretty exciting.
i had a boring day compared to yours :dry:
:laugh:
by the way… mmmm firefighters are yummy… and they…. uhhh. fight fires. haha
:dribble: *swoooon* oooooo FIREMENNNNNNNNNNN :wub:
wow. that seems quite exciting.
my day was quite uneventful, but listening to mosdef and Muse on my computer all day seemed to help pass the time.
firemen, yum. jk.
hey, did you dL photoshop & if you did do you know where to get the product key?
that’s scary if really fire, it happened above my aptment before , the first week I moved in :dry: thanks god someone called the fireman early and they put it out quickly but scared me silly cause I was sleeping and the fireman knocking on my door and I felt the water dripping down from the ceiling.
Thanks for the best wishes on my test =)
My school likes to have fire drills at 3 in the morning. 3 AM, in rain and cold, and there’s not even a fire to show for it.
People are silly.
Thank you for the random props.
and thank goodness nobody got hurt….and hope your female co-workers weren’t too scared ~_^
Helen
man..i wish my roof is on fire….cuz i wanna move hahah no wait i AMMMM XD
same shit, different day. and yes, i’ve never really tried that hard at anything. anything that i’ve done that may seem like achievements to others don’t really count for me.
and no, i haven’t changed my ways at all. but i’m still proud of my cousin and knowing that i helped contribute makes me feel funny in my stomach. you should have been taking pics of your coworkers instead. honestly, what’s your camera for anyway?
dang lol. glad nobody was hurt!
heyy, funny stuff man, Did you hav a valentine this year?
dangerous!
lan u are too cool. :mellow:
aww tats realli swt thanks =] and DAMNNN 13 times?!?!?!? around the world??? or in one state??
instead of running out the door when you saw the fire…i bet you must’ve thought “WOW this is going to be a great xanga post!!!”
WOW..Seems like you had an interesting day. Craziness! ohh..i’ve been promoting since like the beginning of Sept. last year. =)
You know what the say about how a women loves a man in uniform…haha
my partying habits aren’t THAT bad ;P
whoa. but it would be coolerif there was a burning midget stuck in the chimney. :devil:
…we don’t need no water let the mother f***** burn…hehe
Hey what’s going on? Looks like you had an interesting day at work.
Eh, firefighters are only hot if they’re toned and handsome.
But I like my man better, thank you. And er…I don’t use lube that’s labeled “sticky”. Hehe. KY jelly time! 
WHOA. I just realized you work in Irvine. Where? I live here. Hm…
all this is happening and here you are.. taking pictures? you crazy guy.
i bet you those girls started the electrical shortage as an excuse to see hot firemen. check to see if anyone was having a bachlorette party later that evening ^_~
i wish something liek that happend at my work.. so i dont have 2 work ahha
haha.. its next month.. but its still exciting!
xanga gets most of my attention =) keep the posts coming~!! i enjoy~!! hehe :laugh:
glad that no one was hurt and that the firefighters saved the day, but dude that sucks!
Well, it’s good at least that no one was hurt, but I have to wonder about those servers, too :tongue:
first thing i notice are the fire fighters
thats pretty insane!
glad you and your co-workers are ok though
:throb:
you know you were checkin out the firefighters too.
hahaaha. kidding.
effing awesome banner. im a fan of gorillaz. freakin tight, man! lol.
haha, tuitui’s my sister. she’s just kidding
Ohh I’m glad that the fire was nothing major at your work. It’s a bit of a nuisance having to wait around though, on a few occasions the fire alarm has gone off at uni + one time it was during a quiz, we had to redo another exam which sucked because the first one was much easier!
added
you have some interesting pictures :biggrin:
next week will be.. um… antrax!! then the one after… bomb scare… then that after.. sewage overflow!! ewwwwwwwww!!
That’s a great place to work: always something to keep things interesting. I hope you got paid while all this was happening! :biggrin:
in a twisted way, that was hilarious (considering the circumstances and the fact that nobody was hurt). talk about kodak moments.

How exciting..you should have took a close up of some of those firefighters! :shifty:
i’m guessing you have many eventful work days.
wowee…..!!! what a day!!
glad to hear that there was no real major damage that was caused by the electrical short.
… i bet you had something to do with it, huh Lan? :tongue:
as for my day, it wasn’t as action packed as yours.. xD
so, what end up to be the reason behind all the smoke??? :blink:
don’t just leave me hanging on the cliff…
but yeah, since yoOh asked… my day was…. S.H.I.T. (Soooo Happy It’s Thursday)… :pooh:
DID SOMEONE SAY FIREFIGHTERS?! OMGGGG!!! *drools* hahaha what an exciting day (= better than mine =(

Whoa!!
Good one. I wish my days were that exciting.
wow what a day you must have had… :biggrin: wish my life was as exciting as yours… i was just passing by and decided to read your page so i did… kay bye now! :tongue:
I would’ve been one of the girls swooning over the firemen. There’s just something about them.
i went to work. went home. fell asleep. the end.
wish something exciting would happen around here…..o yea..we had a bank robbery police chase once….. :yawn:
firefighters. yummy! :wub:
thank god everyone was okay. but something about firefighters in their suspenders… so damn sexy!!!
Donald Trump.. at least that is what I think! =)
Hi,
Thanks for wishing me well. I hope I get better too for this illness is really killing me. I think it’s pneumonia. I hope I am strong enough to fight it.
Btw, I’m glad nobody get hurts from your company. Viewed the pictures……and it seems like everyone was all happy from the break.
You too, take care of yourself.
-Linda =)
holy… u have a crap load of comments. ur auto show looked so much more fun than my auto show. i liked that 1 man car hehe.
How exciting… maybe our roof will catch on fire… but then… i have my car up there… I should have been a fire man. well as for my first day of class… I almost forgot how annoying it can be in class… and how I never change in a classroom setting… falling sleep… wandering off… and the annoying bastards that ask too many stupid questions… and the other annoying bastards that think they know everything… working… makes you realize how much you miss school… and school reminds you how much you want to get out of school… for me at least.
:biggrin:great story – great day! come to my site to see how my day was! :flowers:
2 words: office space! haha

I used to have a crush and eventually dated a fireman/paramedic! Yeah, they are just too daym HOT! hahhaaha I don’t know, I guess it really IS the uniform! hahaahahaha
But I’m glad no one was hurt. It’s always a trip when it happens at school or work! Of course I would hate for it to happen in my very own home! Now THAT’S scary!
My day is GOOD so far! hehe

you’ll never be on my bad side..
hmmm i hope UR doing good….. hmm make me feel better… tell my a story.. a funny one.. please??
My day is filled with spice that turns my eyes blue on blue… With worms, prophecies being fullfilled, fremen and the maud’dib. My tale is one of mystery and intrigue.
Yesterday I lived in a world with magicians and two worlds. And then I was a samurai in the 16th century.
Yet still, I envy the excitement in your life.
:innocent:
Just random props!! wanted to drop in and say hi!!!
Comment back!!!
Kim
I’m gonna go get me a firefighter uniform
DAMN WHAT A DAY…IN A WEEK I’M GOING TO HELP DELIVER A BABY….MY DAY IS GOING GOOD..SEE YA!!!
hahhaha. my day was NOT near as exciting!
haha i bet people were like why the heck is he just standing there taking pics. i can’t talk though. we had a large riot at our local mall and i hung up on my mom so i could go take pictures. it was crucial! well its a good thing no one was hurt but that sounded kinda exciting. my day… i just gave a speech on Islam at a Christian school and I’m pretty lucky to still be alive. it was kind of awkward. i got a lot of dirty looks and mean notes. but yeah… that’s life i guess.
oh and by the way, what kind of profile pic is that??? lol
Thankyou.
J
