i could be trusted with a dosimeter. i would be so normal about it (lying)

Dosimeters: People who work near radiation sources wear dosimeters to measure their total exposure. If exposure exceeds a predetermined limit, they are reassigned to an unexposed workplace for a period of time. Initially, film dosimeters were used. The darkening of a photographic film exposed to radiation over a period of time is proportional to the total quantity of radiation received. Film dosimeters have largely been replaced by more modern technologies (figure 27.11): thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLDs) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimeters.

Today I added a Bendix CD V-742 Dosimeter to my Civil Defense collection. I was lucky enough that the seller reset the roentgen count for me, as it’s been picking up background radiation over all these years. Definitely a really cool little tool, and an interesting take on how Civil Defense was easily adopted into everyday life. For something no bigger nor heavier than a fountain pen, this dosimeter would prove to be a useful tool for measuring radiation after a nuclear attack. 

This picture is a view straight into the dosimeter itself, showcasing the reset count.
