I always work at least an hour of overtime in the morning and usually never
have ti use the bathroom. But this day was different I always come in at 7am
because I start at 8:00. At 9:00 The restof the employees start and run to the
bathroom. So many came in and left except for Edna a sweet chinese young
girl that laugh at everything. We worked in a beautiful Landmark Building in
New York. Edna had such a great personallity amd we had fun together.
She was ready to leave while I was washing my my hands. :Mary Ann" she
shouts the door won't open. We both got nervous and started yelling for
help.. The big boss comes and says ' they are trying to work on it. Because
it is a Landmark Building they are not allowed to touch a screw. Please be
calm and wait." Edna was enjoying herself while I was a nervous wreck.
It was now 11:00 and i was getting cranky, dying for a cup of coffee and
hungry. Finally they back to the door and my boss has news that almost
made me faint. "Mary Ann They can't fix it so we have to call the fire
department and they will send up a barrel ladder. You both can climb in
and that is how they will take you down.: Edna was enjoing all this she
thought it was so exciting and I was ready to faint. "I started yelling I am
afrais of height, I can't do this . Now I crying like a baby and couldn't stop
I was shacking and Edna couldn't wait for the fire department. We were
only on the second floor but my fear overwelled me. The fire department
came and at the same time the door opened. I was so relieved and Edna
was disappointed. Just imange me on the TV news screaming and Edna
laughing Holly Molly. " It was now 12:00 amd I just said I going to lunch
now. I love my job."
