walking hazard

I realised today i can die in this job i'm in right now. So i better be more careful.

Was testing and connecting up a switch to a AC-DC power converter unit in the workshop when something damn exciting happened. After doing the wirings the next thing to do was to plug into the wall power socket and power up the unit. And that's what i did. Upon the casual and confident flick of the unassuming socket switch.... there was a BOOM and a big spark and the whole workshop fell into darkness.

How exciting is that?!

But no i was not reprimended. Life just goes on after some jokes. Haha.

Add to the $100+ LCD module i burnt and the numerous zener diode that i spoilt so actually i'm not very suited to this electrical thing. And the many colours of the wires give me headaches.

21.5 more weeks.



On a happier note.... i found out that with extreme luck with the terrible public transport after work.... i could actually reach home before 6pm. Scant consolation. That is like the one bright spark so far.
