I can’t wait for the email with the disposal instructions for the burned out lightbulbs. It will likely require signatures from the commissar for environmental protection and Pope Albert I!

I must be doing something wrong.

After twenty-two years in the military...I retired to become a systems contractor for the Air Force, and work in a vault...with lots of florescent bulbs. As indicated in this item...none of the airman or NCOs are volunteers to ever replace the bulbs. Nor would I want them to (try twisting a four-foot florescent bulb). I open the fixture and with a time-tested method of twisting the bulb...I remove the bulb. It takes me 60 seconds to switch out a bulb. If I went around looking for volunteers, then searching for safety gear, and conducting the proper removal...I’d spend 30 minutes per bulb.
