Alarm Going Off? Here’s What Not to Do

4/10/2021

Fun fact: Your fob might unlock the doors but NOT turn the alarm system off. I speak from experience.

If that happens, your dusty old school code; the one you used to use waaay back in 2019, might not turn off the screaming alarm system. Again, speaking from experience.

There are about 4 or 5 numbers listed on the sign-in clipboard hanging the wall. You could call the first one listed for the Alarm Company but that would be a complete waste of time. They will give you "the tech-shrug" and say that the Main Office will get right back to you.

Which, as of this writing, will take at least 38 minutes and counting.

(Say it with me!) Speaking! from! experience!!!

Nope, don't waste time contacting Sleepy Time Alarm Services but instead, call the District Alarm guys at 360-xxx-xxxx, who monitor the district alarms on the weekends and (here's the important part that Sleepy Time can't quite grasp), they can do something to help the situation. Like turning that $%$#@% alarm system the &$#!! off.

So, hats off to G and the Rest of the CK Crew. You guys rock! And my apologies for making you come out to CC on a Saturday.

That number again: 360.xxx.xxxx. I wrote it in Big Letters at the top of the Clipboard so there's no missing it.

(Hand to God: Sleepy Time just called me back. It's been an hour and 4 minutes since I initially called them. Good thing I'm not some Evil­ Doer intent on doing evil!

(Or am I????).

Time to get some work done!!
