When the employees of a restaurant attended a fire safety
seminar, they watched a fire official demonstrate the proper way
to operate an extinguisher. "Pull the pin like a hand grenade," he
explained, "then depress the trigger to release the foam."
Later an employee was selected to extinguish a controlled fire
in the parking lot. In her nervousness, she forgot to pull the
pin. The instructor hinted, "Like a hand grenade, remember?"
In a burst of confidence she pulled the pin -- and hurled the
extinguisher at the blaze.
