Had a bathroom ceiling sag on me at a hotel in Nashville last month

Was doing a job for a new builder, 12 foot ceiling in a hotel bathroom. I hung the board but forgot to put a crown bead on the curved part. Middle of the night the whole section drooped about 4 inches. Builder called me at 6am, had to rip it down and rehang it with extra blocking. Anyone else had a ceiling sag on them like that?

Was there no glue or was it just screws holding it?

Honestly lol, people act like a missing bead is the end of the world or something. It's just a little decorative thing, right? Screws hold it all together fine, glue is just extra paranoia for the folks who treat their jewelry like it's gonna fall off if they sneeze. Unless you're planning on using it as a weapon or something, I doubt it's that big of a deal.
