Honey Garlic Balsamic Chicken

The building where I work seems to be under constant construction. During this hull-a-baloo we are frequently getting emails about the need to test the fire alarm. It's loud.

Today, as we are sitting there working, the alarm went off.
I would like to add, I have one of these ear splitting, strobe light flashing, monsters on the wall RIGHT behind my head!
Have I mentioned they are loud?
No missing these babies!

We all sort of sat there for a minute as we were so used to such annoyances. Then it dawned on us all at the same time "Oh, there was no email warning of this. Uh-oh".
Out the door we all went like cattle. Moo.

The smell was overpowering! Something had caught fire in one of the dumpsters. Some people blame smokers, others blame construction...doesn't matter.
I did not witness anything but stench and smoke, but others said the flames were pretty impressive.

Thanks to the fire department for doing your thing, we appreciate it!

Dinner anyone? This smells much, much better than a burning dumpster!
(imagine that description on a menu!)
