Okay, here's mine. When I was 16, I went to work for a fast food restaurant that specialized in flame-broiled hamburgers. Now, the way they do this - they've got the flame broiler (which means the flame is above the stuff being broiled) and underneath the flames, there are two moving chains, side by side. One chain is for the meat patties, and the other chain is for the opened buns. They gotta work it so that both the meat and the bun come out at the other end at the same time. The way they do that is by passing the meat underneath a flame-thrower, and the buns under a flame better suited for toasting. So there I am, my first day at work, standing at the beginning of the chain, with my boss explaining to me what to do. He says, "Okay, it's gonna get busy in about ten minutes. When I say go, start putting buns on this chain, and meat on that chain. Got it?"
I don't think I need to spend time with details. Within two minutes after starting my task, at the other end of the chain, the meat was coming out raw, and the buns were on fire. I learned two things that day. How to flame-broil, and how to work a fire extinguisher.
