Things I Don't Understand (Volume Six)

"Okay, we're releasing the students for a fire drill now. Head out into the halls and out the doors."
BAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Sound familiar? It should. Every time we have a fire drill, tornado drill, or anything of the sort, announcements are made signaling the drill, yet for some reason, the alarm is still set off. This provides us with no extra help whatsoever. It only manages the students bleed from the ears. What's worse, the blood makes the floors slippery and it's only harder to proceed with our drill. Why must they announce the drill and sound the alarm at the same time? It's completely unnecessary. If you announce, you don't need the alarm. And if you sound the alarm, you don't need to announce that there's a drill.
Trust me, if we hear a loud alarm, you don't need to tell us to leave. We're already heading for the door.
Stop announcing and sounding an alarm at the same time. Just stop it.
