So, I've never posted one of these before as have felt they're a bit like fishing for compliments BUT I guess i am fishing for compliments because did something last night that would normally have me wired for stress/crying/all PTSD and frozen and kind of wanted to mark it for myself :)

Last night at 3am the fire alarms in my were going off throughout my building, on every floor, in the hall ways and in the apartments... for no reason. All five families/residents had no idea how to make it stop or why it was happening and it was VERY VERY LOUD... like a sharp loud AF beeping no one wanted to go near. 

I called the landlord and no answer at that hour. All the residents were understandably super annoyed but one in particular was angry at ME that i had not managed to get through to the landlord (?!) as the sound had woken his child up (no shit, we're all awake buddy!)

I ended up being the one who had to climb a ladder IN EVERYONE'S flat and hallways... and dismantle the alarms to make the sound stop... so being inches away from super loud alarm going off in my face while about 10 people watch me... in my pyjamas, at a time where we are all supposed to be social distancing.

This may not seem much, but I've historically not dealt very well with super loud situations in which people's emotions are running high. Normally i would have snapped at the guy, or cried... or frozen completely. But i did it! Quickly took control, got it done and without fuss... and played some Animal Crossing before going back to sleep. \*tiny cheer\*
