What was one emergency/unusual situation when you surprised yourself by handling things that you would normally think were beyond your capabilities?

@TexChik wow, you could have shot that guy in self-defense and then what would the oil company owner done after that? Was he baby-sitting that son to keep him out of trouble or hiding from the law? Wow...if he had money he should have hired someone to watch him, not bring trouble to your farm.

@cherokeepatti we had Nanny cams ... he initially fired both of us ! I am a consultant for them and I have my practice . So I told him to stfu and sit down and watch and listen . He saw his an break in, steal meds from the bath room and me confront him
And his attack . Then I explained all the things wrong he did as the father and the employer . He cried! Told me the story about the hell he had been through with his son ... and the embarrassment . He was upset because my husband punched him out when he ran up the stairs , off duty sheriffs right behind him . But he understood we only saw a criminal , and had no idea who he was . He left the next day ... the rehab came and got the son ... and cuffed him...he signed off on all of that . The father apologized , wrote out a big check , and thanked me for talking him
Out of another mistake . We kept our jobs and I told him ( because my hubby wa afraid to) that there would never be another company party at our farm ( 3rd. One ). He agreed ...

@TexChik wow fired you both, that's pure crap...glad he changed his mind. He could have had his pants sued off for firing you for that.
