Here’s the part that makes every lab veteran smile: the “oops” moment. Someone too lazy to use the purification system grabs a jug from the break room. They pour tap water into a delicate instrument. The machine wheezes, spits out a red error light, and essentially screams, “Why do you hate me?”
I did this once. The instrument cost more than my car. I spent the afternoon flushing it with purified water while imagining the machine was giving me the silent treatment. Spoiler: it was.
