🚨 FLASH FICTION FRIDAY: THE GRID GOES DARK 🚨
It’s 4:45 PM on a Friday. You’re finishing up work when the lights flicker and die. You check your phone—no signal. Outside, the streetlights are dark, and a strange, rhythmic moaning starts echoing from the parking garage. 🧟♂️
The "Outbreak" has reached your doorstep. You have exactly 5 minutes to leave the building before the stairwells become impassable.
THE CHALLENGE:
Do you have a "Get Home Bag" in your car or under your desk?
🎒 What is the FIRST item you grab?
Do you have a secondary meeting spot for your family if cell towers are down? 📍
In a real-world disaster—whether it’s a massive grid failure, a flash flood, or a winter storm—your "Z-Day" prep is what keeps you calm while others panic.
TELL US YOUR PLAN: You’re at work/out running errands right now. What’s your first move? 👇
