Fire Drill
I noticed that the people living in my block are oblivious towards fire emergencies. Everyone is just either too ignorant to bother when the alarm sounds... therein lies the danger...
Just a few days back, we had a community meeting discussing various issues. One particular was highlighted, in regards to few months back there was a fire alarm set off on a particular floor... and only that floor evacuated the premise. Other floors remain oblivious or simply didn't care.
Come to think about it, I have never heard the alarm sound before and don't even recognize it.
In that meeting there was a call for volunteers to act as fire wardens assign for each floor. Only realizing the potential life threatening danger there and then, I decided to volunteer and do my part as an active member...
I was quite surprised to also learn that I was the only one volunteering... It just goes to show nobody bothers to be civic minded anymore... ~Sigh...
Now... waiting for their call and the impending fire drill exercise...

i think they are also trying to avoid the responsibilities that's going to "bestowed" on them just in case something bad happens and everyone starts pointing fingers at them for being the "bad" person.
Yalo... general human flaw... we don't wanna get pinned in a predicament. That's why we all behave kiasu. >.<
