EXIT SIGNS. Let me tell you what these signs did for my friend and her co-workers…
My friend, Georgie, is working for a small auditing firm. Their office is located at a low-rise building in the congested part of the city. It is okay with her because even if their location may seem prone to danger, she was able to prove that their building is equipped with safety tools for emergencies.
You see, a building that is two structures away caught fire. Naturally, every one panicked! They are at the top most floor and in the middle of a review for a big client. Luckily, some of Georgie’s co-workers from different departments attended the fire drill that occurred a week before the fire. So they know that the way out of the building was through those lighted exit signs. The electricity was cut off and the elevator was stopped from functioning.
Can you imagine what kind of chaos erupted if it weren’t for the exit sign that guided a lot of them out? Georgie was able to bring down her laptop and all her working papers for her various clients. All because she knows the nearest exit sign and was able to use it wisely.
