On March 23, 1990, Employee #1 was at a door going into a work building. She was getting a paper and her watch had fallen off. When she reached for it, she fell but caught herself. She told a coworker that she had an ear infection and that her equilibrium was off. Employee #1 complained of being sore after returning home from work and took a bath.
