It was a good Monday to begin with.
Just like every other Monday blues, but slightly better.
It was the Monday of school holiday.
which means less traffic
Working just like every other Monday, expecting a team meeting by the end of the day. And to fetch my mom from work after that.
It was near 5pm, we got a skype message from our team manager..
"Meeting postponed to Wednesday, 5pm"
Oh well, it got postponed.
"There goes my scripted weekly updates in my head", I thought.
Continue working as usual as I put on my earphone on one side of my ear.
It was about 6:05pm, I skyped Jon to wait another 10mins so that I could finish up just a little bit of what I'm working on.
Then I heard a loud bang from the other side of the office. "Brrronnggg!".. I thought the embedded team was moving things at their side. I ignored it.
Then another loud bang. "Brroaannngg! Braanngg!"
I ignored it still. Same thought as earlier.
Until I saw the far end of the other side of the office as they were talking and pointing towards the ceiling.
I got curious.
Then another colleague came over to my manager's place and I overheard something about the ceiling fell.
"Woaahh? So that was the source of noise?"
I told my colleague seated in front of my cubicle and went over to the place where it happened.
To my surprised, the ceiling of the meeting room where I was supposed to have my weekly team meeting, fell.

I felt so lucky that my manager postponed the meeting. Else we would get injured from this.
My manager could be the only one escaped as his seat is the only part that doesn't got hit when the ceiling collapse. Lol.
