say what?

ok, so today our -bio-terror planner stopped by to do a little training on whatever we'd could read for ourselves off the power-point notes....and before he could even get started reading, one of my colleagues had a complaint...seems yesterday when we had a torrential downpour in late afternoon.....complete with thunder and lightening......nobody told her......and because her blinds were drawn she didn't see it for herself from her own window....and she asked this bio-terror planner what he was going to do about warning busy people about potential disasters.....What?......it was a storm.....yes.....and anybody and everybody that isn't deaf or nerve-dead could have heard or felt the ruckus outside....and somebody who keeps the blinds drawn could look out occasionally during the day just to see....and given that it was all over in less than 30 minutes.....by the time a phone tree would have been started it would have been over by the time everybody got the message.....gracious sakes.....i'd been embarrassed to admit that i was that out of touch with the rest of such a small workplace.....and even if somebody had told her, what would she have done about it?...not much, other than wait for the rain to subside before going home.....
