scurvy "Life ees hard" -- my supervisor, upon yet another failure in our attempt to define the mechanism of the reaction between hydrogen and ethanol
I think I know why work is so depressing: my lab has no windows! It didn't really hit me until yesterday at 6 pm, when I walked outside and realized it had been raining the entire day without my even knowing it. My god, how sad. :P
Besides that, I really have nothing to complain about.
...
My reference material is written in German, my supervisor speaks awful English, I'm given virtually no direction, I have to stare at a computer screen for 7.5 hours a day (without surfing the internet), I think I'm getting carpal tunnels syndrome from all the typing, my supervisor calls me "hey," my work is guess and check, the light above my desk flickers on and off, my reference material is in German, my reference material is in German, my reference material is in German... this is ridiculous.
On the positive side: my desk is shoved off in a corner with my back facing the only opening, so it's very easy to nap while looking like I'm staring at the computer.
