Today was quite a chaotic day at work! In ten minutes, four different codes were called over the hospital loudspeakers:
Code Green Horizontal (evacuation of the floor)
Code Brown (chemical spill)
Code Red (Fire)
Code Pink (infant or child cardiac arrest)
The first three Codes were related, obviously. Elevators and stairwells were closed off, people were prevented from entering the hospital, and the fire station was called.
The ruckus lasted most of the afternoon. We had no idea what was happening, except that we were told to keep working "as usual" unless instructed otherwise.
Contrary to popular belief, I had nothing to do with this one. Hah.

That must have been fun. My coworker's experienced a code black (bomb threat for those of you not in the know). They continued their meeting in a coffee shop down the street. Ha.
I asked him later why anyone would want to bomb a hospital? Answer: most likely the animal activists set the alarm off. I keep forgetting that they do medical research on animals.
