Friday's work shift

On Friday we set up a video conference for a talk with Noam Chomsky at U of T. I brought my camera hoping to take a photo of the event but I was too busy, and I also wasn't allowed to. What I didn't know, was that I was going to be working another job afterward, for the Governing Council at U of T, where they were to discuss raising tuition fees. I was to sit in a room next to where all the Deans of the university were meeting, and control the audio levels of the webcast. Right when the discussion started, I heard loud voices coming from downstairs. They were student protesters. Next thing I know I get locked inside and all I hear is chaos outside my door. Since I had my camera, I put it to use. It doesn't look as bad in the video, but I thought the door was gonna bust off of its hinges and swing into me. WRONG DOOR FUCKERS!
