Robots are Temperamental

While I can't really say or discuss what I do for a living, on a day to day basis (like I know who all care so much, right?}, I can still talk about the instruments that I use.

So there's this robot...



...and he has a mind of his own. Right now, he hates me. I mean, all I want him to do is grab my samples, weight them, and put them back! Is that so hard?

Well apparently it is, he dropped one. Now I have chemicals all over the internal scale and an afternoon of cleaning and calibrating ahead of me. Yippy!
