Mercredi 6eme juillet

Here at work they have a central PA system with speakers running in all the office corridors. Unfortunately when they started talking this morning I had no idea what was being said. I got slightly nervous when they started sounding what sounded very much like a 'get out the building' alarm. However none of my colleagues looked at all fazed so I stayed put. Thankfully Nathalie (who is my mentor here) decided to tell me what was going on. Apparently on the first Wednesday of each month they run a test of the alarm system! I was very glad it wasn’t as loud and harsh as the university one as it continued for about 5 minutes!
