Not to sound trite but I will say a prayer that everyone is safe! I worry about all you peeps!
Only two of us were in the office. I'm on the second floor. The other employee didn't feel it, but she is closer to the center of the building. I'm in a perimeter office.
Back.
Tazzy what floor are you on?
Back.
That was extremely trippy. The floor was bouncing and swaying.
I'm still a bit freaked. Thank goodness there was no boom sound, otherwise there would have been a stampede.
27. When I got down they said all is well with the building. But I'm still like really? You checked the entire building in 10 minutes??
A place to debate everything and anything!
