When I was with the last company I worked in a resteraunt, every July they shut down for the month and for 5 years running I'd go in and chop out and replace all the tiles the chefs dropped their pans on. Every year I'd turn on the powerful extractor systen and get busy with the grinder. The last time I did it I forgot to turn the extractor on. Had my peltor radio ear defenders on and what with the noise of the grinder didn't hear I'd set the alarm off which had been going a good 10 mins or so. Happened to look up, there was the manager and a bunch of firemen, and considering I thought I was in the kitchen alone, I jumped out of my skin, much to the amusement of the manager and the firemen so didn't get told off, just felt like a right twonk. Glad I didn't do it the next day, it was 2 blocks away from where that Bvreivik monster set the bomb off and the firemen had their work cut out for them that day as it was.
