I don't know if they still do it anymore, but back in the day, Contract Services demanded that each of us in the IA (among the on-set crafts, anyway) show up every few years to prove our I-9 citizenship status -- as if I'd really sneak across the border to Mexico, Canada, or Belarus to renounce my American citizenship, then have second thoughts and hire someone to smuggle me back across the border where I somehow resumed my former life in the exact same apartment I had before... ahem, don't get me started on the idiocy of Contract Services. Anyway, once we'd confirmed our citizenship, we had to take a colorblind test. As a lighting guy, I could understand that much: with red, blue, green, black, and white power cables, each color-coded to make it easy to avoid creating a huge dead-short, we really needed to have decent color vision.

BTW -- "Other Halves" looked really good.
