We have assorted cooking greeblies (tools, towels, etc) hung up on pegs in one of the aisles at about the 7-foot level. Most of the stuff is light and easy to reach, but if it lands wrong could still cause some injury and I dread having to reshelve anything there. Most of the pegs are overflowing because someone doesn't want ANY backstock and some items are too heavy for the pegs at that height.
And then we have....skillets, pans and cast iron mini-pots, on the same flimsy pegs, positioned in such a way that if someone is browsing the bagged coffee, said cookware is generally right above their head. Occasionally when I'm pulling tags, any movement on the shelf will cause the section of pegboard to wobble and the hooks are already leaning downward; partly because of the pegboard and weight, partly because there is a gradual slope in the floor toward the center of the building. It's inconvenient for customers too, as it's not easy to get at the pots without bringing something else down.
It doesn't seem like there's any other place to put the pans, even though a shelf would be a better idea. I've narrowly missed being hit by that crap more than once (and everyone on the night crew has gotten at least one black eye). Tempted to buy a hardhat and wear it, but I'd probably get yelled at.
