《Big Red Button.》Second punch.

You punch the button.
Dong.
Another dong. Hmm.
Give me a second.
To: IT Desk 3 From: Testing Room Beta Subject: Weird sound. Hey Max, the button goes “dong” sometimes instead of “ding”. Should I be worried?
Just sit tight.
I’ll get to you in a moment.
To: Testing Room Beta From: IT Desk 3 Subject: Re: Weird sound.
Oh yeah, that happens. One of the interns that was hired last week is totally tone deaf and got it wrong. If it goes “dang”, be worried. Otherwise it’s fine.
Want to grab a beer after work?
To: IT Desk 3 From: Testing Room Beta Subject: Re: Re: Weird sound.
Good to know!
Pssh, you know I’m always down for a beer!
To: Testing Room Beta From: IT Desk 3 Subject: Re: Re: Re: Weird sound.
Cool! See you at eight!
I'm totally gonna beat you at darts tho, fair warning!
To: IT Desk 3 From: Testing Room Beta Subject: Re: Re: Re: Re: Weird sound. Ha! In your dreams, dude!
Hmm? Why are you tapping your foot?
OH! Right! I totally forgot about you!
Sorry!
The sound is fine.
Where were we?
Ok, so the room is now tv-free. In the place of the tv is a treadmill.
It’s good to get plenty of exercise. You’ve been stuck in this room for a couple hours now, why not stretch your legs a bit?
You… You aren’t getting on the treadmill.
Don’t you want to stay healthy? You don’t?
Somehow I’m not surprised.
I didn’t mean that as an insult! Honest!
I’m sure you’re just worried about getting dehydrated, since there isn’t any water in the room.
Riiiiiight.
Well, just to prove me wrong, you get on the treadmill. It isn’t plugged in, but somehow it magically starts up anyways.
You start it at a low setting, a comfortable walk. You could probably go at that pace forever.

Actually, no, it’s too slow. It’s uncomfortably slow. You push the button to speed it up.
There we go, now it’s a nice walking pace. A good half-hour at that pace and you’ll have gotten all the exercise you need for the day.
Maybe.
I don’t know much about how exercise works.
Anyways, without music or anything interesting to look at, you get really bored really fast.
You turn up the speed.
It’s now at a speedwalking speed. Woo! Look at you go! So speedeh!
You turn up the speed again, and have to jog.
Yeah, that’s the ticket! Burn those calories! Go! Go! Go!
Aaaaand now you’re getting off the treadmill, leaving it running. You push the “up” button, maxing out the speed for the belt. It- umm- it’s going pretty fast now.
I see the look on your face. I know that you plan on jumping on, just to see what happens. I really don’t recommend it.
Like, I really don’t think that’s approved by the manufacturers as an acceptable usage…
You jump on.
…
Wow that looked painful.
You ok, dude?
You kinda have skidmarks on your face now.
Didn’t know someone’s heels could hit the back of their skull like that.
You probably have one hell of a headache right now.
To be fair, I totally warned you not to do that. This is absolutely not my fault.
You climb to your feet, groaning. You may or may not have broken your nose.
Also your eyebrows… well… I’m sure they’ll grow back eventually.
Glaring at the treadmill, you head to the button.
DO YOU PUSH THE BUTTON? Yes No
