This morning as I was drinking my coffee and watching Playhouse Disney...I checked twitter and saw BREAKING NEWS that a NASA facility in Cleveland was under a lock down situation and that reports of a gunman on the loose where being thrown about.
My first thoughts were....I knew this was going to happen. I just knew at some point some disenchanted, dislocated and depressed former aerospace worker that was jacked around by the changes in the space program....was going to snap.
Go postal.
Eventually, the news came out that it was only a drill. It appears NASA is also afraid that the way they treated dedicated employees will come back to bite them.
I wonder if ATK is having *fire drills* today too?
*Yes....it appears I'm still upset about Constellation being cancelled.
I think they had something like this happen in Houston recently too.
ReplyDeleteLINKY LINKY TALL AND SLINKY!!! :) Don't know where that came from.
ReplyDeleteThat just really sucks that they're jacking around with the space program...AND especially it's employees! I noticed that Discovery didn't launch again today. It's really sad that this will be it's last flight.
ReplyDeletewell. You would think they would not allow something like that to go out in the media when it is only a drill!!
ReplyDeleteFirst thing I thought of when I read that breaking news was how lucky iKeith was to be out of there! I didn't hear it was just a drill part.
ReplyDeleteIt is a sad, sad sign of the times that it is necessary to have "gone postal with a gun" emergency drills...
ReplyDeleteThey should be scared when they piss a mama like you off!
ReplyDeleteGlad it was only a drill....but maybe next time it won't be!
