Instrument 'kong'...sad case

yup, yup... the instrument that i'm using in room 316 'kong' (meaning rosak liau)..... this morning tot of going to that room to look for Wei (the phd student in charge of the machine) to let him know that i wanna use that instrument later this afternoon. when i reached there, pou wee's gp was already there... they were in the midst of trying to figure out what happened to the machine... according to one of them, there was flame coming out fr the machine n the compressor kept running (it was supposed to cut-off once in a while)....
our gp was the last one to use it last friday, but i dun think we did anything to it..... but anyway, sorry to pou wee n his group members.....
so, i waited until 12pm for them to fix the instrument... then my supervisor JT told me that the technician said it's fixed.... i was like WHEEEE-WOOHHOOOO.... i getto start my work.. so i went to room 316 again... start the instrument.... everything seems to b fine... the compressor did cut off once in a while..... so i load the sample... n few seconds later i heard loud noises coming fr the machine n not the compressor... i'm like, oh my gosh.... what's happening.... so, i went n find Wilma n we shut off the whole machine.... waited till loraine come back n told her abt it.... she says she can ask them to clean the burner n see how it turns out or maybe they may need the engineers to come n check....
for ur info, the instrument is already a decade old.... time for maintenance....
sigh~ so i've been waiting for one whole day and getto do nuttin in the end....wtf...n prob my whole project will b delayed....
damn 'tau-mei'...
