In my college days, I was working a part time job at Montgomery Wards in
Shreveport LA. I had to clear out a storage area and in that area was a
box of about 25 six foot florescent bulbs. As I walked down a set of
wooden stairs, I stumbled and let loose the whole box. As they tumbled
down the stairs, all I could do was run back up the stairs.
I think every employee in the store came running, it was quite the show.
Every single bulb had broken.
