Years ago, I got railroaded into an interview board for employing staff
sparks for studio work. Don't ask why. ;-)

Board consisted of one senior engineer, one personnel type, and me. A
sound recordist.

The others waffled on about health and safety. I asked for a sketch of
the schematic for a switch start fluorescent. One out of twenty managed it.

And did he get the job? :-)
