Fuck. Heard the funniest thing today. One of our students was telling us how he picks up, the rules, the plan of attack; god it was funny. I thought it - he - was the biggest joke. He approaches girls within 3 minutes of seeing them, only if they are not alone, and at an angle of 45 degrees. He learnt this from some video. 45 degrees!! He probably has a compass in his pocket when hes out. Oh well. Must work for him, hes got 2 dates this weekend, or so he claims. There are probably good reasons for those tactics but I'm laughing more at the way he was telling the girls at work.
Today was productive. Helped the student make two lead shielding blocks. Stuffed one up and had to re-do it. When I got around to doing it again, the melting pot had clogged up and I couldn't pour any more blocks. I told my boss, she called the hospital engineers and got one of them to come up. He tried sticking pens and screw drivers through the tap hole. My boss looked at me with the biggest oh-my-fucking-god-he-is-so-stupid face. She warns him that if he burns himself with molten alloy its his fault. So we quickly hurry him out of the department and my colleague has the smartest idea. I pull out the heat gun and heat up the tap, turn the tap and eventually molten alloy starts pouring out. Yay. Aren't I just brilliant? Well not really seeing as it wasn't my idea, but still, I was the one who fixed it.
One of the doctors was late in doing his work, which meant I couldn't start any work on it today. The patient was planned to start treatment on Thursday. The original plan was to get the dosimetry done today and then sup-checked and doctor approved by the afternoon. When we realised we couldn't get it done in time we told the doctor; his idea was for him to mark out the tumour volume and then we plan it while he reads a book. We told him it would be too rushed so we off-booked the patient until Monday. So yeah. He marks the volume, and I start planning, he goes home. Forty-five minutes later I finish the dosimetry... we so could have started the patient tomorrow. Damn I rock.

45 degree angle huh? So do you approach from a 45 degree angle or do you adjust yourself to a 45 degree angle? Gotta try that someday. If only there was someone whom I can try that with. But boy...2 dates this weekend??? I'll be lucky to get even 1!
I think you approach them at an 45 degree angle, so that when you walk past them they are actually at a 225 degree angle, then you turn around and go "hi cutie..."
...something like that. i'm not sure.
