Awkward, ACAB, Cops and Work: Security breach

Security breach

By BryanTazed - 22/08/2015 12:21 - United States - Ashland

Today, I woke up early for work. Had my coffee, finished up a report and headed out of my house. Not only was the office closed today, but the silent alarm was on, which is triggered by a door opening even if you use a key. I was startled by the cops searching the building, ran, and got tased. FML

Today, my first day on the job, I locked up the office after everyone left and set the alarm. An hour later, my new boss angrily emailed me that I locked him inside the building, setting off the alarm and prompting the entire police department to show up. FML

Bad day

By Anonymous - 12/11/2010 05:37 - United States

Today, I accidentally set off an alarm at the school I work for. No one was there, I didn't have the code or password the company needed, my boss wouldn't answer his phone, 3 policemen interrogated me and asked for ID but realized I left home without my wallet. There was nothing I could do. I cried. FML

Today, I was woken up from a phone call from my boss. He asked if I had been asleep. I told him I wasn't, that I was in my car on the way to work. Then my alarm went off. FML

Working too hard!

Today, after spending 6 hours straight working on a project at school, I decided to call it a night. The instant I set foot out of the lab, the building started screaming. The maintenance guy had set the alarm without telling me. The police had to let me out. FML

Today, after being a few minutes late to work a few times this week, I left the house super early this morning. When I got to work, security hadn’t unlocked the doors yet, so I waited in my car, where I ended up falling asleep and sleeping through most of my entire morning shift. FML

Today, I heard my alarm go off, dragged myself out of bed, had breakfast and got ready for work. As I was heading out the door I checked the time again. It was 1:41 AM. Apparently my alarm never actually went off. FML

Today, at the gas station I work a lady called wanting to know the "password" and if I was okay. Thinking it was a prank I hung up. A couple of minutes later she called back, this time asking if I could see the cops outside and telling me I'd be alright. I saw four of 'em. I'd hit the silent alarm by accident. FML

Today, I went to the post office. As I entered the building, my car alarm went off. Thinking I'd accidentally pressed the alarm on my keys, I shut it off without looking. When I returned to my car, the passenger window was demolished and my purse with all my money was gone. FML

Today, after waking up in a panic because I was running late for work again, I realized I was fired for that exact reason the day before. FML

Today, I put my headphones on and laid down to relax to some music. I fell asleep, and woke up later to a police officer busting into my house. My neighbor had been knocking on my door, then looked through my window and saw me on my couch, and was convinced I'd died. FML

When are people going to learn go not run from the cops? Sorry OP but YDI

OP most likely didn't know it was the police... if I heard some people busting into a place where I was, I'd get my butt outta there too. I don't wanna die because I decided to investigate a strange sound...

The problem with that scenario is that the cops usually announce themselves before shooting even tasers

The first thing you do when you see cops is run? In a place that you work? Ok then.

This was a tough vote...you ran that makes it a YDI but the other end you didn't know about it and that's makes it a FYL...

YDI, running from the police gets you in some trouble and you should know that from the news.

YDI for running!

I kinda imagined that maybe OP got there first, usually getting there second or third, or thereabouts, and thought, "Maybe the first guy is running late. I have the key, I can go in anyway, set up, whatevs." Then the police turn up, don't announce themselves, something. So OP hears people running about and people burst through near where they are, gets scared, runs a bit, probably to put some distance, and gets tasered.

A lot of ASSumptions.

Okay, if you knew they were cops, then it was a bad idea to run. But if you didn't know at first and just ran on pure instinct, then that's totally understandable. Either way, hope you're doing okay now, OP.
