I had to go to a large hospital to get an X-ray
(understandable since I'm recovering from a torn
rotator cuff injury). I get to the hospital and
go up to the X-Ray department. The person at the
desk tells me that before they can take my X-ray,
I have to install an engineering change in the
X-ray machine.

I ask for the engineering change documentation and
they hand me a large stack of drawings and a .1ufd
capacitor in a CK05 package. I ask for a table and
chair to look at the drawings. They find me a table
and chair and I lay out the drawings and go get a
cup of coffee.

When I return, there's a big piece of electronics
on the table and an angry doctor. He insists that
I fix his box before working on the X-ray machine.

I wake in a panic.

Any freudian engineers want to take a crack at this?

Tubular, axial or of can-type...

I think I remember old ceramic hf-caps with mounting holes as well.

Oh well - this goes to far..



Jim, let's say you just had a geek-dream, ok?

An X-ray looks inside you, and is also an external objective evaluation
of your health/ soundness.

You fear that the evaluation mechanism is flawed, but crave it anyway.

You seek acceptance and praise, despite being sceptical of those
evaluating you, but know that this will be postponed indefinitely by an
infinitely- regressive sequence of escalating demands from them. Hence
the panic.

Sounds like work to me.

I had the exact same dream once too. Except there was no X-ray machine, no
stack of drawings, no capacitor, no table, no chair, no big pieces of
electronics and no angry doctor. Just a very "friendly" nurse.
