New guy on the job as IT support for a hospital pharmacy department ... first assignment was to work on the department director's new notebook installing this and that, etc. Finished the job and set the computer in its docking station up about 6 feet on a stack of boxes containing new systems for distribution. Did some other tasks then went to pull the unit down ... grabbed the docking station, the notebook wasn't secured and it slipped out. I watched in slow motion ( my hands were full of docking station ) as the $3000 notebook spun to the ground, hit the tile by the corner and pieces scattered around the room. Case was destroyed, display was fractured and it still booted! I survived that to work there 6 more years however it was a tense moment walking into his office with the computer. I started off with "Well I've got the new software installed ......"
