Today, I was responsible for directing the flow of traffic into elevators and make sure people do not stuff them. Although everything went smoothly, I did have to yell at a parent for using the emergency exit door. Well… I really cannot blame her because it is really hard to understand that a door with a red sign that says “EMERGENCY EXIT ONLY” along with instructions on opening the door (meaning that you would have to try REAL hard to accidentally trigger the alarm) and beeps real loudly when the door is opened is not a door for routine exit of the building. With that aside, when she tried to open it for the second time, I yelled at her and said that it was an emergency exit; and just to shame her, I turned to the people waiting for an elevator, I said, “I will NOT tolerate have another alarm here unless it’s a real emergency!”
Finally, GUADALUPE ST. IS NOT A DRAG RACING STRIP. I think I will call APD and ask them to monitor this area closely.
