Letter to Editor

Dear Editor

    My name is Angel and I’m writing this letter to tell you what I am a survivor of a big factory fire. This big massive fire that killed a lot of people, some of my only friends that I have had was in that fire and I lost them. This fire changed my whole life around; it made me realize how blessed and grateful I was to survive it. The fire started because someone threw a lit cigarette in a trashcan. After that very moment it changed everyone’s life. That little trash can fire progressed into an out of control fire. It started on the 8^th floor and just went up, big out of control massive flames. Some people would have made it if the emergency exit was open, or even if the fire holes were working but that’s the reason why we lost those people. What’s the point of having an emergency exit and they all are locked. Its like those people set us up for failure they knew what they was doing. Some things need to be changed; we need better-improved emergency exits, stairs that will lead us to the outside If we really need it. We need a lot of improvement period. Now that I’m older I tell others to live their life to the fullest work only when you need to and never work in a factory, you never know when it’s your time.
