In case of fire alarm

In case of fire alarm in apartment complex at 6:30AM

  1. Hold sock against alarm to mute noise
  2. Wonder why this alarm is going off, and what the neighbors think
  3. Wake up
  4. Retrieve screwdriver
  5. Disassemble alarm, thus ending awful noise
  6. Realize it's the whole apartment complex
  7. Wander outside and see people you never knew lived on the floor beneath you
  8. When noise stops, go back to sleep

I had no idea what the alarm was for or why it was going off. I imagine my first instinct wasn't supposed to be take it apart.
