Any Good Kitchen Horror Stories?

Just something I've always been curious about. If anyone has any good stories about an experience you've been through, something you've seen, or heard second-hand, I'd love to hear it. Could be a time you were caught ill prepared for a meal/ banquet, could be a job you landed, only to find the kitchen hadn't been properly cleaned in ages, could be that time you mistakenly hired a vastly under-qualified cook (no real names, please).
