Here are a couple of my favorites from a day on a siesmic program a couple years ago.

I really love my job as an environmental consultant. I see tons of wildlife everyday, use my quad and sled and get paid for it. This morning i counted 112 whitetails in a 6 km stretch outside of Meadow Lake sask.

How would someone get in t your job?

Well.....had a little fire at work last Saturday so I've been fixing this mess this week.

Cable tray just melt? looks like someone has a lot of JB's to buy....or cable to pull......or both.

More like vaporized! The shiny stuff on this staging 20 feet below is what's left of 'em. Three FULL 24" trays right through the middle of the fire! Crew of 15 electricians installing tray, ripping out old and pulling in new cables for 7 days/24hrs straight now. Me....I have to sit at a desk searching through about a zillion drawings trying to figure out what the hell was in those trays , and how we're gonna put it all back together so it runs again. Some of it's been there since 1968. Think I'd rather be out there doing the grunt work!

Sounds like a bit of a nightmare.
Experienced the same sort of thing on a smaller scale a few years back. There was a fire under the conduit rack coming out of the control room at the gas plant I worked at. Only 1 36" tray there I think (and a bunch of rigid conduits full of RW and beldens). Spent a month tracing out, replacing and re-terminating.
