Earth-shattering kaboom

Me two weeks ago: "Technicians will be performing a routine 5-year safety test of the elevators. ... This is not expected to cause an audible disturbance inside [Borg] space."

Me today: "Soooooo... it turns out that it does 'cause an audible disturbance' because they load the elevators up with bricks and then drop them."

My people prairie-dogged to see what was going on.

That sounds like fun! Maybe I should have trained to be an elevator technician.

Risks include dropping your phone 23 floors down the shaft, like one of the colleagues of this team did a few months ago.

Ahahaha, if that was supposed to be a deterrent, I think it backfired rather spectacularly. *casually nudges cellphone closer to the hole*
