I was considered “brave” and “crazy” for offering to work that shift. People were losing their minds. It was the first time I realized how gullible the general public was. I was the calm in the storm. I reminded them that air was not controlled by a computer and we would survive. It would be like “camping nursing.” Midnight -NOTHING- and people felt stupid. I’m ready for that feeling again. It was priceless.

Me too, It was all hands on deck at a large manufacturing facility. Cost tens of thousands of dollars per hour for any down time. We shut the whole thing down and waited. Nothing happened. Then someone said well maybe it has to do with daylight savings. So we waited another hr. Then just to be sure we waited another. Then we carefully and slowly started back up. Seems like we were on edge for days afterwords.
