Most "oh shit" moment to ever happen at work

My last job at the water park had it's fair share of mini-calamities, but the one that sticks out the most was when a nasty microburst happened on top of the park. I was working the gift shop filled with people hiding from lightning and flying umbrellas (gg operations), and because our store is on an incline, the whole place started to flood with roughly 4 inches of water. We spent three hours using Tupperware containers to push the water out the front door, and the carpet reeked of rainwater for about a week. Don't ask me why a store in a waterpark had carpeting.

Lots of accidents can happen if you're not careful or just plain unlucky. A guy i work with was unlucky, and the vat he was siphoning the FeSi into just gave away. This resulted in many tons of molten metal getting all over the floor and equipment. Costed the company about 750k kroner, so like 100k dollars approx
