The safety glass job at Championship is very stressful. The volunteer who was involved in this incident had probably been yelled at by students/mentors all weekend as my wife had last year.

But I agree completely. It was not handled in the appropriate way. And you're right, FIRST needs to be a little lenient here.

All of this would get better if there were more safety glasses available. And if people actually brought them back when they were done borrowing them (this is the hard part...)
