Yesterday I found some 3H-labelled [cellular assay drug] in our freezer.
We don't have a radiation license. Oh, and the half life? 12.3 YEARS.
So.... how am I going to deal with this, without getting the lab in serious trouble?
I am going to put it in the back of the freezer and graduate before anyone notices.

A couple years ago, another lab- which does have a radiation license- moved to Snooty U. They packed up the freezer contents in styrofoam boxes with dry ice, loaded it all onto the truck, and then unloaded it all immediately into the -80.
When safety came by to inspect, they found two packages of hot dogs in with the 32-P.
Someone was not paying attention while packing.
Safety was very upset.
