Possible, even probable. Lots of people that
don't know how to drive also manage to screw up a
try at an oil change or a tire change. Hopefully
it would keep them off the road for a while but
usually some well meaning person comes along and
gets them going again.

I'm not so sure shes trolling - this question comes 3 days after her
question about locating an undermount sink, just about the right time frame
to be messing with the disposal.

Woe unto him who reaches into the disposer to retrieve a dropped spoon, only
to set off the float switch. Ouch.
