Default Re: Tales From Work

I'll tell a #talesfromgradschool

A colleague in my lab group was replacing the nitrogen tank in his lab. It's in the basement by the microscopy area, and has to go 4 floors up by elevator.

As he's entering the elevator, one of the lab technicians walks to the elevator as well. We're talking a balding, mid 40s-looking French guy who doesn't dress particularly well.

My lab colleague hits the button for gas tank floor. This dude proceeds to press all the buttons, leave before the doors close, and tells him "have fun".

Apparently the technicians were testing the fact that the magnetic interference of the nearest elevator was affecting one of the high end electron microscopes, and they correlate the effect with what floor the elevator was on.


10/10 would be a dick and press all the buttons on the elevator again
