The staged bombing and hostage situation at work was quite fun and informative. The local hostage negotiators and swat team members from the sheriff's office were *fine*. Have mercy!

One friend was an actress. She suffered a traumatic amputation. she had to hold her arm under her shirt so that all that showed was this elbow maded up to look like a meaty severed boney arm. How nice of her to share her makeup job with the rest of us while we were eating. Mmmm.

Now I'm home, tired yet wired. I must be at work at 8am tomorrow. Bleh.

Interesting. I'm curious as to what started this mock situation.

Why, ultimately 9/11, of course. But the disaster preparedness schtick has been going on with our company since the late 90s.

Nice. I am just wondering if we're going to be doing that some point here. That's all. Happy Friday! :)

It is a good mental exercise, if your company wants to dedicate the resources to do it. The other cool thing is that law enforcement here is totally eager to do the exercise, because it gives them good experience, too...using an actual office with its own unique design, working with the business, etc.

find any revelations?

Did you learn any revelations that you wouldn't have stumbled upon if this exercise was not ran?

what about... did any hostages get shot?? ;)
