    I just don’t understand why he heard an alarm and thought “probably nothing. let me just turn it off” instead of thinking that he should alert someone. Alarms don’t go off for no reason.

      Not everyone is smart. Not shit talking janitors, not in any way. But, I’m guessing a lot of people do that job because they can’t do anything else.

    As someone who regularly uses freezers like this, this would PISS ME OFF.
