Today I fixed the cooling system for our x-ray generator. It was a basic reboot, after the building decided to shut down the cold water supply for some reason. The panels on the side of the cube were a bitch to remove, though.

User friendly my *ass*. I broke four fingernails! Above the quick and painless, but it's the principle of the thing! Why would you design a machine without taking into account whether it will mess up a girl's manicure?

Guess I should've clipped my nails this morning after all.

*sulks*

Rock on.

Xray machines in general tend to bite me. Always bloody after even just preventive maintenance.

I love that machine, for serious. It is *dead sexy*. I do not love the panels on the cooling compressor system, though.

Maybe it's a requisite sacrifice to the x-ray gods or something.
