The other week at the one (Thai) restaurant where I work now, I was finishing my end-of-dinner-shift task of cleaning the restrooms and taking out the trash, and I felt a twinge in my lower back.
It wasn't until the next time that I did those tasks that I figured out what was "the danger zone" -- when I go to change the bag in the tall plastic trash-bin behind the counter and it's exceptionally heavy, I lean over the bin as I pull it vertically out, and that posture and that weight combine to do something with my lower back.
In the future I must guard against that.
