When we first arrived at the Church Administration building, we were given security cards with which to enter our offices. Familiar to those who work in some office settings, the key cards are read by sensors in the elevator and office floors and you can't get in without them.
Entering the CAB, we are greeted by professional security guards, who man a whole command center of monitors, alarms, and other high-tech stuff. Here Sonny (who likes to joke with new missionaries by telling them his name is Cher, which he pronounces with a Chinese accent!) shows a complicated panel of sensitive instruments. We enter an elevator and let the sensor read our card before being allowed to punch a button, then arriving at our floor, we once again present our card at the door and wait to be clicked in. The downside is if we go out of the office and forget our card, we have to push a doorbell which plays an annoying electronic tune to alert someone to let us in. It's a pretty secure place to be!
