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.

    Seeing the dad lower his kid to the ground and look at him frantically as he tried to figure out how to save him. That was the moment that changed everything, and made me run that much faster. I had a kid stop breathing at my pool two years ago and I had to deliver chest compressions and rescue breaths to get him breathing again. At my other job, about a month ago we were closing, and I had my newest associate with me on his second closing shift ever. 15 minutes before we are to clock off and head out, there's this sudden rush of water overhead - we had a small leak recently before, so I ran back to where maintenance previously cut a hole in the wall and saw a 2' pipe completely bottomed out, draining gallons on the ceiling above my store and spraying [i]all[/i] of the open electrical sockets up there. It began pouring out of a light fixture, running out of the wood trim, and popping holes in the ceiling where it couldn't support the weight. No product damaged fortunately, but was a ~$5K fix for our mall.
