Have you ever noticed that society thinks we can’t handle ourselves?  I already told you about codes used in shopping centers to communicate a “situation” without us knowing what is going on.  Well, that’s not the only place they use a secret language.  If you are ever flying on a plane and you hear this, brace yourself.

Maybe society is right.  Maybe we can’t handle bad news or we would simply just lose our minds.

However, if you hear THREE of those chimes it is time to pray to sweet baby Jesus.  That means there is an emergency aboard and they are trying to communicate that to the other flight attendants without alarming the passengers.

It is never beneficial to panic so always stay calm and listen to instructions.   Here are some other codes you may hear in a Walmart that you should know about:
