Maybe I take preparedness to far. When I go into almost every building I locate the closest exit. Now in a restaurant or most stores this is almost a non-issue, you can see the exit.

When I go into high rises, when I exit the elevator on the floor I am on I usually take a moment to look at the floor plan and then do a visual on the exit door to the stairs.


I go so far as when my 6YO son and I go to movies I point out the exit up front by the screen we will use if we have to leave quickly.

On a crossword puzzle,all me paranoid or call me prepared. Both have eight letters.
