the world has turned and left me here

this is only a test

Short story idea. Man is at work & is told they will be conducting random tests of the emergency fire alarm system. The test begins. He simply tunes out the strobe lights, pleasant intercom voices telling him to evacuate, strident beeps, etc. and goes about his daily mind-numbing work. Until by some freak chance a fire actually *does* start. (What are the chances a fire will start during the fire alarm tests? Has anyone stopped to consider the potential effects of this?) As the flames leap up around him & his fellow benumbed coworkers, he is incapable of responding--after all, this was only a test--and he perishes in the flames like a sad human charcoal briquet.
