changing their lightbulbs

Houston-Tillison - NONE - the administrators have to do it because
none of the students could pass TASP

University of Texas System Administration:   NONE! - This requires at
least 5 specially trained physical plant employees and at LEAST 3 days
for the crew to arrive.  One electrician to climb the ladder and
determine the "proper" bulb; One electrician's helper to hold the
ladder; One helper to go get the bulb; one to perform the delicate
operation of extracting and replacing the bulb; and as this is a work
crew of 4, it requires a supervisor for the detail.  (Don't laugh! it
took 3 days and the above crew to change the bulb above my desk!!!)
