Proper Popcorn Protocol

no joke this is an email i just got at work.

At approximately 2pm today the *** fire alarm sounded. The cause: Burnt popcorn.
This was the second time in a month that *** has experienced a "popcorn" alarm. Once again the entire building was evacuated. Employees had to wait outside as Facilities and the Fire Department determined the cause of the smoke, and reset the alarm panel.
This is yet another reminder that popcorn should NEVER be left to pop unattended. It is a very bad practice to start popcorn, and then leave to use the restroom, talk to a co-worker, make a phone call, etc.
If you make popcorn, please monitor it.
If it does start to burn, remove it from the microwave, and take it outside, so that the smoke will not set off an alarm.
If the alarm does start to sound, please evacuate, and then inform Facilities, Security, or the Fire Department (all should be reporting to the scene) that the source of the alarm is popcorn. This will make the reset process go quicker, and the length of time that employees need to stand outside will be less.
Everybody's cooperation is needed, and very much appreciated.
Thanks!

I just love moments when engineers are the stupidest people in the world.
