On the school roof

Know that saying about how the easiest path is most obvious or something(i dunno). Anyway I did it, I found a way onto the roof of the highschool. This all started last week when me and my friends lost a hackey sack on the roof and decided "why not go up there and get it?" anyway, last Friday we mustve spent an hour walking around the school after hours looking for a way up but to no avail. So im at my friends locker and look into one of the classrooms, and the obvious hit me. You can get on the roof through one of the classroom windows. To make things worse...it was the same classroom i was in 2 years ago. Lol ever just felt really...really stupid? So yeah, Friday we're finally gonna go up on the roof and check it out(and hopefully get the hackey sack). Just thought id share that story with ya. Just goes to show, the easiest solution is right in front of your nose

Lol.. not so easy for my Vocational School...

They used the blueprints from a correctional facility, so the classrooms have no access to outer walls, and no windows whatsoever except for 6"x20" window panels about 7 feet off the floor in hallways.

However, in one of the washroom anterooms there is what appears to be the entrance to a storage room, but is accually the entrance to a staircase leading upwards and presumably to the roof.

The only problem is the deadbolt on the door, lol...

Just wait till we improve our lockpicking skills...

I wonder whats behind THAT door?

Yeah what you say is totally true, I wanted to go into this really cool building with logik and we wanted to jump over this high boarding in a busy parking lot to get in. After looking around we found a wide open door in a non-busy parking lot.

Yep, sometimes the simplest solution is the best. (Occam's razor?).
I'm poking around this mill here, looking for a way in, all the windows are locked or boarded. Buuut, the door...which I tried last? Unlocked. Grr. Easiest solution.

And damn, I think they model our offices after jails too. Or just model the atmosphere after them.

Or the principle of parsimony.

The group I UE with have run into similar situations a few times. We'd all be looking at climbing pipes to get to second story windows, or pulling bricks out of a small hole to make it larger, or scaling a pile of wooden planks to climb through a high window. And later, it would turn out, the front door was unlocked or something like that. Another time we were trying to figure out if a door was alarmed, and we walked around the building and a huge window in the back was totally busted open.

Sometimes it's hard to see the simple solutions, because we're always so busy looking for the difficult one. We think it's inevitable that something's going to be hard, so why even consider the easy solutions?

Truer words were never spoken. We expect things to be hard. We get conditioned for it. I never know what to do when things come easy. It just makes me suspicious.
