1st world problems

I work in a school. The district is having problems with its internet. People are panicking because they have been moving us into using technology in a large way.

*grins*
No internet. No problem.

And then something happened last night in our 3 1/2 floor building.There are classrooms in the basement. There's a district department in the basement.
The basement is flooded, I'm told. Haven't gone to check but I believe the voices of the doomed.

This area should be somewhere close to 100 degrees F today. Chillers work with water. Water is requiredc for the Fire sprinkler system. Toilets work with water, sinks too. We've about 1000 people in this building and the water is turned off.

Pray for us.

*grins* For my honeymoon we stayed in a log cabin with wood heat and no amenities. Did the person version of cat, dug a shallow hole and covered it over afterwards. Northern Wisconsin in late November. *grins*Totally understand what you went through. 4 Days though. ARG.

About mid-day they brought in a water truck and workers with a real shitty job played sorcerer's apprentices ferrying in buckets of water to flush the toilets.

It is amazing how very nice it is to have running water back.
