Ha - my boss at Broadway Studio
was in the habit of closing his eyes in the darkroom.
One day we heard a loud profane scream
come from that room.
Seems he closed his eyes
and proceeded to load the reels
after about four rolls
He remembered
that he didn't shut off the light.

This was commercial work for money.
Don't recall what the job consisted of.
But it resulted in extreme professional embarrassment.

Fond regards,
George
