Title: setting it off
Post by: Hubbs on August 13, 2010, 11:51:16 AM
  :oops; well, i was so board yesterday sitting there.  I was looking at my intake arm, you know that big bump at the elbow? and when u touch it, u can feel the blood going threw?  well i pressed right next to that  (very little bump) and the blood flow stopped or slowed down.. (remember, i can't hear) so next thing i know someone comes over and presses  a button and walks away.. Hmmmmmmmm.. ya think?  so i did it again.. yep, it was me..  i set the alarm off hehehe..  i told them next time that was me. ans showed them how i did it..  no biggie..  but my point in posting this is.. Ever needed someone, maybe just to pick up something that fell?  (my cookies)  so now i have a way to call them with out screaming across the room :)  :rofl;

Neat trick! I'm not a yeller, so I usually wait until someone walks by and then I ask them for whatever.  I was told today that my flow was 2000 and something... which I guess is good, so I don't think pressing on anything would set an alarm off
