"At one of my previous jobs, it was mandatory that every new hire was on the fire brigade. I actually really enjoyed it, but it was a bit nerve-wracking when we were really involved in emergency situations. One time, there was a small fire in the shop that got out of control pretty quickly. Someone activated the emergency alert system, which meant everyone had to evacuate the area. The fire brigade assembled in a certain part of the plant and immediately got to work in putting the fire out. I was part of the fire brigade that was sent since I was already working in that part of the shop. I was nervous, but at the same time I also knew that I had been fully trained to handle this type of situation, and I leaned on that training to guide me. The fire was out in no time, and we were all relieved that more damage didn't happen."
