I was retrieving rotisserie chickens out of the Meet department cooler. The pallet of chickens was a double stacked pallet and I reached up with my hand to grab the top box. When the box slid forward I reached up with my second hand to lower the box and upon taking the weight of the box felt a sharp pain in my lower back.
