Some "Assembly" Required

The bookstore chain I work at has seasonal display materials created by a prominent pop-up book artist, so this year decorating the store was more than just hanging some banners created by the marketing department.

In particular, there are some decorative elements displayed on pillars, mid-store, that required extra reinforcements.

So I found myself repeatedly using the fingers of one hand to part the opening of a long section of cardboard designed to accommodate a metal bar. And of course the other hand was used to guide the bar into the opening and to slide the bar into the channel.

The instructions stated clearly the the metal bar was to be inserted fully until it stopped.

The bullets I was sweating had nothing to do with the effort I was exerting.
