Narrative

While changing out light fixture on the fuel island. The light was positioned in a way that the light was not illuminating the ground. Once one bolt was loose, they proceeded to loosen the second bolt, and that's when the fixture containing the light pivoted in a downward manner, smashing the employee's right middle finger.
