This is a question "You're doing it wrong"

Chthonic confesses: "Only last year did I discover why the lids of things in tubes have a recessed pointy bit built into them." Tell us about the facepalm moment when you realised you were doing something wrong.

Cleaning out the rabbit hutch.
A farly routine task, you can't really do it wrong. However my sister "unknowingly" managed to bundle up the rabbit amongst the straw and newspaper that had been lining the floor, and threw the lot in the dustbin. Fortunately my brother discovered her thus enabling (i) the rabbit to be saved and (ii) a swift "tit for tat" strikeback to be mounted. Rosie, our sister's biggest and most loved doll was in that bin in minutes. When we got to the second part of the "act now, ask questions later" response, our sister claimed it was an innocent mistake. She did so again at my birthday get-together last month, some forty years after the incident, but we remain unconvinced and unforgiving.

Needless to say, now that my daughter has rabbits, we carry out a full risk assessment, and work to a written method statement (including headcount immediately before waste disposal) when cleaning them out.
