Ding dung..ding dung. Achtung, achtung..
(maksudnya: Ding dung..ding dung. Perhatian, perhatian..)
Hari ini asyik kedengaran bunyi alarm dan announcement di pejabat. Lepas itu datanglah berbelas-belas kereta bomba dengan sirennya yang agak membingitkan.
Tak ada pula announcement mengarahkan kami keluar dari bangunan hari ni. Kalau minggu lepas, situasinya agak sama juga tapi kami diarahkan keluar. Menurut office mate ku, hari ini bangunan lain yang terlibat. Aku angguk saja, sebab aku memang tak faham announcement yang dibuat dalam bahasa Jerman itu.
I realize that being in the office inside a chemical plant, the danger is always there. Long long time ago, in 1921, dah pernah berlaku explosion di sini. Read here. Seriau juga aku lepas membaca pasal explosion ni suatu ketika dulu. Some of the facts:
*The explosion was estimated be equivalent to about 1–2 kilotonnes of TNT and was heard as a loud bang in Munich, more than 300 km away.
*The pressure wave ripped roofs off up to 25 km away and destroyed windows even farther away. In Heidelberg (30 km from Oppau), traffic was stopped by the mass of broken glass on the streets.
*About 80 percent of all buildings in Oppau were destroyed, leaving 6500 homeless. At ground zero a 90 m by 125 m crater, 19 m deep, was created.
Nonetheless, I think chemical plant is one of the safest workplaces. See here:

opss... tersama pulak. Pagi tadi kat ofis pun ade jugak bunyi siren. Menurut sorang staff tu, kalau bunyi siren walaupun tak de announcement kita kena keluar dari ofis jugak dan berkumpul kat assembly point. Lepas semua investigation di buat. Baru lah leh masuk ofis balik walaupun sebenarnya alarm tu yang rosak.
Moral of the story: Kita kena sentiasa berjaga2 walaupun bukan kat chemical plant, kat jalan raya pun sama. "Malang tak berbau"
Tapi komen ni berbau sedikit serius. sowiii...=P
anis, patutnya macam tu la kan, ada siren terus keluar. tapi nk wat mcm mana, kat sini dia ckp announcement tu maybe utk sesetengah building je.so kena tunggu translation dari office mate dulu. huhuhu.
serius ke? xde lah. kita mmg patut berhati2 kat mana2 saja. every place has its own danger. :D
kalau macam kat hostel cane?? everytime alarm berbunyi akibat rumah atas masak ikan kering, takan nak lari bawah jugak kot?? n bile blok chemy kat sebelah blok is berdering2.. sume pun cam cuak2 tp uat x layan je... :P
hostel abaikan je kot.(is this a good advie??.. huhuhu)
kalau boys punye hostel lagi la. everytime ada org smoking, berbunyi la alarm tu.kdg2 awal2 pagi nak tido pun terganggu.
about the chemy blok punye alarm, dun worry, kalau kami ada kat dalam lab tu pun kami x kluar.hahaha.
blame the alarm.sapa suruh bunyi x tentu pasal. hehehe :p
*advice
huhu..
aku tak rasa perbuatan baik- dengar alarm terus cari assembly point boleh apply kt hostel utp tu.. euwww.. bunyinya agak tak baik kan.. that't the fact la.. hahaha..
kerja kat petrochemical plant mmg risky.. kalau tak ada apa2 berlaku, memang tempat tu la aku rasa paling selamat. tapi kalau jadi apa2, situla tempat paling tak selamat untuk kita berada.. :D
that is so true aalim, chemical plant can be the safest but at the same time the most dangerous place.
btw, alarm kat utp mmg x bleh dipercayai. hehehe. :P
