*440Baker, J.,
dissenting.
I respectfully disagree with the finding of the majority that claimant sustained an injury which arose out of and in the course of her employment. There is no evidence that the subject trash receptacle was for the personal use or benefit of the employee in the performance of her work. I agree with the commission’s assessment that the cause of claimant’s injury was related to her “personal mission” and not to the performance of any duty owed her employer. Claimant was injured while returning from her side excursion, not while traveling from the parking lot provided by employer. The divergence distinguishes this case from the previously decided parking lot cases.
I would affirm the finding of the commission.
