Why did the pipette break up with the beaker

I had an experiment go a little sideways the other day when our pipette decided to just stop working during a critical transfer. It was like it knew it couldn’t handle the pressure — i swear, the beaker was over there just rolling its eyes, probably thinking it dodged a bullet. Anyone else have a tale of lab equipment drama?
