This is more of a reckless oops that something simple as making a mistake.
Yesterday I was walking past a former workplace of mine when I noticed something odd...there was smoke pouring out of the building. Since I used to work there and I was friends with all of them I headed over to where the assembly area for if a fire broke out. I join them, say hello and get the basics of what happened. Looking round I notice something so I go "Err, where's Kate?"
Nobody had seen her since the alarm went off, so immediately I turn into my Leadership mode (I don't choose to be a leader type person but if there is one needed then I'll step up) So I tell everyone to stay where they are no matter what and run inside...yep, that's right, I run into a burning building (Hence why it's an oops, but if you're read any of my previous posts, you'll know that I'll help someone who needs it, no matter what.
I stumble through the thick smoke, after a couple of minutes eventualy finding her, out cold, on the floor (this probably saved her life since smoke does rise) I pick her up and head back outside (I have a remarkable pathfinding skill no matter how bad the vision is)
Turns out she was in the stock room on her own, the alarm going off frightened her causing her to slip and knock herself out cold.
I promptly got a telling off (albeit in a slightly Well done kind of way) from the head Fireman who turned up. And then all of my former workmates offered to chip in for cleaning my clothes to get the smell of the smoke out.
I stopped in and checked on her this morning (they kept her overnight at the hospital just to look out for her) and she's fine, albeit with a cough and sore throat.
