How was your boring meeting interrupted in a completely unexpected way?

0:05.1

We were in our weekly meeting and heard a huge boom, similar to thunder, but louder and longer.

0:11.1

Everyone ran to the window, and the car detailing shop next to us was in flames and pieces of the

0:15.8

building was strewn about everywhere. They evacuated our building and I got the afternoon off,

and miraculously,

0:21.6

no one had died. We were having a meeting about a piece of process equipment and how we should

1:16.4

We were having an all-hands meeting a couple of years ago, and several people, as always, had dialed in on the phone.

1:20.4

They ask everyone to mute themselves, of course, but someone always forgets.

1:24.8

In the middle of our director addressing all of us, we suddenly heard a car horn on the phone,
