Cleaning Crew
Just after 7:30am
Standing by one of the windows, the CC Boss takes note of how the storm just seems to be getting uglier and uglier.
The rain coming down even harder, the winds kicking up fiercely, continuing lightening followed by ever louder thunder.....
::CC Boss thinking:: Damn, is this storm gonna let up any time soon?
Turning from the window to see how his crew is doing, he notices one of the girls heading for the door, then exiting the dorms into the raging storm.
::CC Boss:: "Is that girl out of her little mind, going out in this maelstrom?"
Looking out the window again, he see's that she's going in the direction of the indoor gym.
::CC Boss:: "Now thats a crazy ass girl, going out in this storm."
Walking over to the table where he placed his little radio, he adjusts the volume to hear the continuing weather report.
::Radio:: ".....bzzzz.......reports continue to come in about continued flooding in many areas....bzzzzz.......the high winds have........bzzzz....ocked down pow....bzzzz.......ines and are int......bzzzzz.....ring with radio broadcasts.
..........bbbbbzzzzzzzzzzz..........government and local officials are asking that if you do not ne......bzzzzzzzz......go out, then please don't and remain indo..........bzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..............or your own safety.
Please stay tuned for our continuing coverage of this storm.
Shaking his head at what he's just heard, the CC Boss heaves a heavy sigh.
Catching sight of something, he looks to his right with a slight turn of his body, and sees it again.......the lights flickering rapidly, indicating a possible prelude to a power outage.
::CC Boss:: "Well, there it is, this here storms gonna knock out the power grid soon enough.......better get prepared."
Facing his crew, he issues his orders.
::CC Boss:: "Ok, listen up, I want 3 of you to go the storage room and get the flashlights ready, make sure that each one has fresh batteries.
The others keep cleaning.........snap to it, now!!"
As 3 of his crew go for the flashlights, and the others keep cleaning, the CC Boss hears an awfully loud crash of thunder overhead.
Sighing once again, he wonders when this crazy ass storm will finally blow over.
