Renegade7 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Man, someone pulled the firealarm in my school. No one can figure out how to turn the damn thing off, so they're sending everybody home. Hope they find whoever did it and tar and feather their ***. :redpunch: Anyone else had that happened to them? This sucks. I don't even have Internet at home, big reason why I'm here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forehead Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Shouldn't the fireman responding to the alarm know how to turn it off? Man, at Longwood, the fire alarm reacted to extreme cold, for some reason. It was always going off in the middle of winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was always going off in the middle of winter. Most schools have propietary alarm systems .... that means the local FD doesn't get the alarm, they only respond when requested.

Renegade7 Posted December 12, 2009 Author Share Posted December 12, 2009 I think you have your priorities backwards. lol, nah, man. I spent enough time acting my "age", and I'm still paying for it. Working on my A+ certification right now, but somethings in this book need a lil more explaining so I do what I can with what I have. Big dreams take hard work, and when I take a break I take a break. I have to pay my own rent, buy my own food, and pay my own bills. If I don't get my prorities in order, no one will, ya know? Besides, I work both jobs tommorrow, can't stay up, too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a small community college, so I hear teachers talking about they can't even get into the room because people with the right key gone for the night. I don't get it, but it's whatever. :doh: up, almost had it. now it's off, no it's not. got it. still kicking us out. Still not off. ugh* There we go.

I haven't heard a fire alarm since senior year of high school. They were probably the most annoying sounding things in the world that I took pleasure in hearing.

If so, I didn't know TCC had night classes on Friday night, plus if your at TCC I'm not surprised someone pulled the alarm and also not surprised no one knows how to fix it.

ixcuincle Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Welcome to college. All the fire alarms though were at 2 or 3 AM though. Those are the worst.

TCC deserves every crack it gets, the only positive note that can be said about TCC is that you get what you pay for, which is little to nothing. By the way did you go to R-MC? I've seen you post a time or two about them, you want to talk about not getting what you pay for, that was the biggest waste of $27,000 ever.

bushwack Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I did. I have never considered it a waste of money. I'm not saying the education is a waste of money; however, the dorm I had to live in would have been something I would have expected from TCC and paying $3,500-4,000 a year, not $27,000. The food at Estes was just as bad as Bennett Hall if not worse. Needless to say I didn't go back for my 2nd year there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The building itself was a dump, but I couldn't have asked for a better freshman dorm experience. As for the food, I didn't really expect much out of a cafeteria. Can't beat all you can eat seafood night and Thanksgiving dinner there though! It's all about the tradeoffs when you choose to go to a private school.

Cheers, Beers and Mountaineers Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 We got a lot of fire alarms at towers at WVU. It was a pain in the ass but at least there was a Mcdonalds across the street to eat and kill time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCC does have a couple friday night classes, but not many. Ya, talking to a principal at one the elementary schools around here, and she prays everyday no one pulls it. Same problem. Hey, no matter what school you go to, you have to make the most of it. Take what they give you, then do what you can on your own time. Teachers can only teach but so much, the rest you have to push and figure out on your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I set off the alarm once or twice in a drunken stupor and both times it was pouring rain and freezing. Oops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
