Priorities

As you may have heard, my wife and I evacuated to my home town for Hurricane Ike. After hearing that our home was ok, we met up with some friends, that we had not seen in a long time, at my favorite pizza joint. One couple was also evacuating from the storm and works for a large oil company. During lunch they received a call from the company. It went something like this: (Names have been changed to protect the innocent.)

This is an urgent message for Bob Bobbly from Weegot Gas. If you are Bob Bobbly, press 1 now.
Boop!
Bob Bobbly,
If you are ok and can report to work, press 1 now.
If you are ok but unable to report to work, press 2 now.
If you are in trouble and need Weegot Gas to rescue you, press 3 now.

Glad they have their priorities straight. I'm just surprised that the first option wasn't "For English, press 1."
